EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense danger and quick thinking during World War I. In the midst of the chaos, Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany finds himself taking cover beneath his car to avoid darts dropped by a French aeroplane in 1915. The lithograph, created by Eugene Damblans, beautifully illustrates this remarkable event. The image showcases the prince's prudence and resourcefulness as he seeks refuge under his automobile while the French aviator unleashes deadly projectiles from above. Published in Le Petit Journal on August 15th, 1915, this illustration served as both propaganda and historical documentation of the war. The photograph not only highlights the aerial warfare tactics employed during World War I but also emphasizes how even royalty was not immune to its devastating effects. It offers a glimpse into the daily struggles faced by soldiers on all sides of the conflict. As we observe this powerful image today, it serves as a reminder of the bravery exhibited by individuals caught up in global conflicts. It is a testament to their resilience and determination to survive amidst unimaginable circumstances. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to reflect upon history and honor those who fought for their countries during one of humanity's darkest times.
