EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative aerial photograph captures the devastating impact of the First World War on the suburbs of Arras, northern France, in November 1917. Taken from a Canadian kite balloon during reconnaissance missions, the image reveals a desolate landscape of destruction and ruin. The once vibrant suburbs, now reduced to rubble and charred remains, bear testament to the devastating effects of war. The fields, roads, and buildings are obliterated, leaving only a haunting reminder of the destruction wrought by the conflict. The Great War, also known as World War 1, brought about unimaginable destruction and loss, and this photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the devastation that engulfed the suburbs of Arras. The Canadian forces played a significant role in the Battle of Arras, which took place between April and May 1917, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal moment in history. The image is a stark reminder of the enduring impact of war on communities and the importance of peace and reconciliation.
