EDITORS COMMENTS
Bomb damage in Antwerp, Belgium, First World War, 1914. This haunting print captures the devastating aftermath of a German Zeppelin raid on the historic city of Antwerp during the early days of World War I. Taken around 1920 by an unknown creator, it showcases a house wrecked by a bomb just 100 yards away from King Albert's residence. On the fateful night of August 24-25,1914, terror rained down upon Antwerp as bombs were dropped near the royal palace. The destructive power unleashed by this aerial warfare resulted in five tragic deaths and widespread destruction throughout the city. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the immense human cost and physical devastation caused by war. It depicts emergency services and firefighters bravely navigating through rubble-strewn streets to rescue survivors and extinguish fires that threatened to consume what remained standing. Published in 'The Great World War: A History', Volume IX edited by Frank A Mumby in London circa 1920, this photograph offers us a glimpse into one small corner of the vast tragedy that unfolded during those tumultuous years. As we reflect upon this image today, it is essential to remember not only those who lost their lives but also those who risked everything to save others amidst unimaginable chaos. May their bravery serve as an enduring testament to our shared humanity.
