EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Historic England Archive takes us back to a significant moment in history - October 1915, during the turmoil of World War I. The image showcases Lincolns Inn Chapel, nestled in the heart of Holborn, London. However, what truly captures our attention is the visible aftermath of destruction caused by a German Zeppelin bombing. The west front of this beautiful chapel stands as a testament to resilience and endurance amidst wartime chaos. The shattered windows bear witness to the devastating impact that war had on even sacred spaces like this one. It serves as a poignant reminder of how no place was spared from the horrors of conflict. Photographed shortly after the bomb fell on that fateful day - 13th October 1915 - this image freezes time and allows us to glimpse into an era filled with uncertainty and fear. Yet, it also reveals glimpses of hope and determination as people came together to rebuild their communities. As we gaze upon this photograph print by Historic England Archive, let us not only appreciate its historical significance but also reflect on the strength and unity displayed during those tumultuous times. May it serve as a reminder for future generations about the importance of preserving our heritage while striving for peace in an ever-changing world.
