EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Les sous-marins allemands contre les neutres; Arraisonnement, par un sous-marin allemand' (German U-boats against neutrals: Arrest of the Spanish liner 'Infanta-Isabel-de-Borbon' by a German submarine), was published in 'L'Illustration', a French weekly magazine, in 1924. The image captures a pivotal moment during the First World War when a German submarine intercepted and boarded the Spanish transatlantic liner 'Infanta-Isabel-de-Borbon' off the coast of Cadiz on March 18, 1918. The photograph shows five German officers and fifteen sailors from the submarine approaching the Spanish liner, with one officer remaining on the submarine, keeping watch over the Spanish vessel's deck. The submarine is seen turning slowly in the background. The image provides a glimpse into the naval warfare that took place during the conflict, involving neutral countries and their shipping. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the complexities and challenges of wartime, and the impact it had on various nations and their people.
