EDITORS COMMENTS

The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, captures a poignant moment in the midst of the brutal realities of aerial combat during the Great War. The photograph depicts a French sentinel standing guard next to the wreckage of a German biplane, its fuselage riddled with bullet holes and debris scattered around.

The image serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost of the war, with the sentinel's vigilant presence symbolizing the ongoing conflict and the harsh realities of wartime. The photograph is a testament to the technological advancements of the time, with the biplane serving as a symbol of air transport and transportation during the war.

The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical images from the First World War, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insight into the experiences of soldiers and aviators during this pivotal period in history. The creator of the photograph remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue surrounding this powerful and evocative image.
