EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print by Fortunino Matania captures the moment of the Fall of the German airship L-21 during World War I. The image depicts the fiery destruction of the Zeppelin over Cuffley, Hertfordshire, after it was brought down by British pilot Lieut. William Leefe Robinson on the night of 2nd/3rd September 1916. The immense conflagration casts a glow over the landscape, illuminating the terrified faces of onlookers and the panicked cows in the nearby field. The balloon's flames and fire create a chaotic scene, with debris and smoke billowing into the night sky. The historical significance of this event was immense, marking one of the first successful attacks on a Zeppelin by the British military during the war. Matania's Sphere special reportage skillfully captures the raw emotion and intensity of the moment, making it a powerful and poignant reminder of this pivotal moment in World War I history.
