EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the early stages of the First World War's naval conflict, as the British Navy engages the German mine layer, Konigin Luise, off the coast of Harwich. In the image, the Lance, a British destroyer, is shown in its position as it prepares to fire the three fatal shots that would ultimately sink the enemy vessel. The Konigin Luise, a crucial transport for German mines, was a significant loss for the German forces in the North Sea. The sinking of this ship marked one of the first major naval actions of the 1914 conflict, as the Allied and German forces clashed in the early days of the Great War. The ocean's surface around the Lance is calm and still, with only the occasional wave cresting in the foreground, creating a stark contrast to the imminent danger and chaos beneath the water's surface. This historical photograph, taken by renowned war photographer G.H. Davis, provides a glimpse into the intense and pivotal moments of the First World War at sea.
