EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a parachute descent during the era of modern armaments in 1938. The image, taken by an English photographer, is part of a set of cigarette cards on the subject of Modern Armaments issued by Louis Gerard.
The parachutist in the photograph appears suspended in mid-air, descending gracefully towards the ground with their parachute billowing above them. This scene evokes a sense of both danger and excitement, highlighting the technological advancements that were being made in weaponry during this period.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported back to the early 20th century when tensions were rising across Europe and the threat of war loomed large. The Second World War was just around the corner, and images like these serve as a reminder of the turbulent times that shaped our world.
Through this photo print, we are given a glimpse into a moment frozen in time - a testament to human ingenuity and innovation amidst conflict. It serves as a poignant reminder of our past while also sparking curiosity about what lies ahead in our collective future.
