EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a haunting scene from the Clones Road customs post in Ulster on the last day of 1956. The image, taken by Charles Hewitt for Picture Post, showcases the aftermath of a violent conflict that plagued Northern Ireland during this period. The photograph reveals a police station with its windows shattered and damaged by bullets. The pane of glass stands as a testament to the sustained turmoil experienced in this region. In this portrait format, we see the remnants of war etched onto every inch of the frame. The absence of people in this image adds an eerie quality to it, emphasizing the desolation and destruction caused by ongoing conflicts. Through Hewitt's lens, we are transported back to a time when tensions ran high and violence was an unfortunate reality. The presence of the Northern Ireland flag hanging proudly amidst such devastation serves as a poignant reminder of resilience and identity amidst chaos. This archival piece not only documents history but also evokes emotions tied to loss, struggle, and hope. Displayed against a backdrop of European landscapes seen through the windowpane, this print is more than just an artistic representation; it encapsulates an era defined by conflict while preserving its significance for future generations to reflect upon.
