EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1915 showcases a groundbreaking innovation in warfare during the First World War. In an era dominated by bombs and explosives, this diagram reveals a unique alternative employed by the military - steel darts dropped from aeroplanes. The image captures the moment when these deadly projectiles are released into the air, poised to rain down on unsuspecting troops caught off guard on open ground. The sheer audacity of this unconventional weapon is both awe-inspiring and chilling. As we delve into history through this photograph, we witness how necessity breeds ingenuity. With limited resources and evolving tactics, military strategists sought new ways to gain an advantage over their adversaries. The use of steel darts as aerial weapons was one such inventive solution that emerged during this tumultuous time. The significance of this image lies not only in its historical context but also in its representation of human resilience and adaptability amidst conflict. It serves as a reminder that even in times of war, creativity can flourish under pressure. Ken Welsh's masterful capture allows us to glimpse into a pivotal moment where traditional weaponry met modern technology head-on. This thought-provoking print invites us to reflect on the ever-evolving nature of warfare and the lengths humanity will go to secure victory or survival.
