EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing diagram from 1915 contrasts the colossal size of a German air-dreadnought zeppelin with a section of buildings in Piccadilly, London. The First World War saw the development of the zeppelin as a formidable weapon of war, with the German navy operating a fleet of rigid airships that could carry bombs and wreak havoc on enemy cities from the sky. The air-dreadnought, a term used to describe these military zeppelins, was a symbol of German technological prowess and a source of fear for the Allied powers. The diagram highlights the staggering scale of the German airship, with its length of 785 feet (239 meters) dwarfing the buildings in Piccadilly, which are shown to be no more than a few stories tall. The diagram also provides measurements for the zeppelin's diameter, height, and volume, emphasizing its immense size and capacity. The use of a diagram to illustrate the size difference between the zeppelin and buildings in Piccadilly was a common tactic during the war, as it allowed people to grasp the scale of these airships and understand the potential destruction they could cause. The diagram serves as a reminder of the awe-inspiring and terrifying technology of the time, as well as the stark contrast between the world of war and the familiar streets of London.
