Instruments of Destruction - Types of War Bombs in Use During the Second World War
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and thought-provoking photographic print by G. H. Davis, showcasing a comparative chart of various types of bombs used during the global conflict. The image, dated 1940, offers a chilling reminder of the destructive power unleashed during the war. The chart, meticulously arranged, displays an array of bombs, each with its unique purpose and design. The incendiary bomb, represented by a fiery inferno, was designed to start and spread fires, causing extensive damage to buildings and infrastructure. The high explosive bomb, depicted as a large, ominous sphere, was engineered to cause maximum destruction upon impact. The armour-piercing bomb, illustrated by a jagged, metallic shape, was specifically designed to penetrate heavily fortified structures, making it an essential tool in strategic bombing campaigns. The delayed action bomb, symbolized by a ticking time bomb, was intended to detonate at a later time, allowing for maximum surprise and devastation. Lastly, the oil bomb, shown as a large, black, ominous cloud, was used to spread oil over a target area, making it easier for subsequent bombing raids to ignite and cause widespread destruction. This photographic print serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive capabilities of war and the devastating impact of the various types of bombs used during the Second World War. G. H. Davis, a renowned photographer, captured this image for Illustrated London News (ILN), a leading British weekly newspaper at the time. The print offers a unique perspective into the wartime arsenal and the technological advancements that shaped the course of the conflict. This historical photograph is a must-have for anyone interested in military history, World War II, or the history of weapons and warfare.
