EDITORS COMMENTS
(At the Wheel: A Truck Destroyed by a 210mm Shell Near Verdun, the Radiator Detached and Fell into the Crater, 1916) is a poignant and evocative image from the First World War, captured in black and white in the "Album de la Guerre 1914-1919" (Album of the War 1914-1919) published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph depicts the aftermath of a devastating shelling on the battlefield near Verdun, Meuse-Lorraine, France, during the Battle of Verdun in 1916. In the foreground, the wreckage of a destroyed truck lies amidst the destruction, its radiator detached and fallen into a deep shell crater. The image captures the raw power and chaos of the battlefield, with soldiers and men in uniforms seen in the background, likely assessing the damage and tending to the wounded. The truck, a crucial means of transportation for the army, now lies abandoned and damaged, a testament to the destructive force of the war. The image is a powerful reminder of the human cost of the conflict, as well as the devastating impact it had on the infrastructure and transportation networks of the time. The location, near Verdun, was a significant battleground during the First World War, with some of the heaviest fighting taking place between February and December 1916. The Battle of Verdun is considered one of the longest and one of the most destructive battles of the war, with estimates suggesting that over 300,000 soldiers were killed, wounded or missing. The photograph is a haunting reminder of the past, and a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue surrounding this powerful and evocative image.
