EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment in history during the Second World War. The image showcases a German Navy U-boat commander, deep in concentration, as he peers through the periscope for observation. Published on the cover of "Die Woche" on May 8th, 1942, this print is a powerful testament to the bravery and dedication of those who served in the military navy. The commander's stern expression reflects both his responsibility and determination as he navigates through treacherous waters. His eyes are fixed on an unseen target, highlighting the intense focus required for such perilous missions. The composition emphasizes his isolation within the confined space of the submarine, underscoring both his vulnerability and resilience. As we gaze upon this historical artifact captured by Leonard de Selva, we are transported back to a time when nations were embroiled in conflict. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during this tumultuous period. This print not only documents an important chapter in human history but also pays homage to all those who fought valiantly at sea. It stands as a symbol of honor and courage exhibited by naval forces worldwide during times of war.
