EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the aftermath of the destruction of three German Zeppelin airships, including the L20, in a Norwegian fjord during the first world war. The date on the print is 1916, and the location is not explicitly stated but can be inferred from the context of the publication, "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Janvier, Fevrier, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin 1916." The L20 Zeppelin, with its stern facing left and bow raised in the air, is the most prominent feature of the photograph. The two other zeppelins, their wreckage scattered around, can be seen in the background. The image conveys the devastating impact of aerial warfare during this period, with the once-mighty airships reduced to ruins. The exact circumstances of the destruction of these zeppelins are not known, but it is clear that they did not meet their end gracefully. The dislocation of the L20's carcass is evident, with the bow lifted high into the air. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive power of war and the human cost of conflict. The print is a valuable historical artifact, providing a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the aerial warfare of the first world war. Its origin is unknown, adding to its intrigue and making it a fascinating addition to any collection focused on military history, aviation, or the first world war.
