EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the autumn of 1914, a haunting reminder of the devastating impact of World War One on one of France's most iconic landmarks. The image showcases the medieval Roman Catholic Notre-Dame de Reims Cathedral, also known as Our Lady of Reims, in its aftermath. Once a symbol of grandeur and spirituality, it now stands in ruins. The destruction was caused by relentless German army shelling that set fire to the temporary wooden scaffolding surrounding the cathedral. Tragically, this inferno quickly spread to ignite the oak wood within its roof. The result is a heartbreaking scene captured for eternity. Despite its current state, this High Gothic style cathedral holds an illustrious history as the site where thirty-three sovereign coronations took place over more than a millennium. It served as a sacred space where kings were crowned and divine blessings bestowed upon them. Through this poignant photograph from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are transported back in time to witness both beauty and tragedy intertwined within one frame. It serves as a powerful testament to human resilience and reminds us that even amidst destruction, there remains hope for restoration and rebirth
