EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting remnants of a battery casemate on the D-Day coast, dating back to the Second World War. Located in Longues sur Mer, Calvados, Normandy, this historical site stands as a powerful testament to the region's wartime past. The image showcases the exterior of this military bunker against a backdrop of sandy banks and barbed wire. The architecture of this casemate is both imposing and intriguing, with its solid construction symbolizing strength amidst conflict. Its weathered appearance tells stories of battles fought and lives forever changed within its walls. The vibrant colors in the photograph bring life to an otherwise somber scene, reminding us that even in times of war, beauty can still be found. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era filled with uncertainty and danger. It serves as a reminder not only of the horrors of war but also of our collective resilience and determination to overcome adversity. Longues sur Mer stands today as a travel destination for those seeking to understand and pay tribute to history. This print by Guy Thouvenin/Robert Harding invites us into this world where past meets present - where ancient structures serve as reminders that peace should never be taken for granted.
