EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the devastating aftermath of a torpedo attack on the Norwegian oil-tank steamer, Belridge. The image, originally featured as a front page photograph in the Illustrated London News, was meant to illustrate the destruction suffered by another ship - the Lusitania - which was sunk by a German U-boat on May 7th, 1915, resulting in the tragic loss of over 1,200 lives.
The detailed depiction of the torpedoe damage to the Belridge serves as an important historical reminder of the brutal realities faced during World War I. The import of this image lies not only in its visual impact but also in its ability to convey the sheer devastation caused by wartime attacks on innocent vessels.
As we reflect on this piece of history captured on December 15th, 1915, we are reminded of the sacrifices made and lives lost during times of conflict. It is through photographs like these that we can better understand and appreciate the significance of past events and ensure that such tragedies are never forgotten. This print from Mary Evans Prints Online stands as a poignant reminder of our shared history and serves as a testament to those who have been affected by war.
