EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment when an early airship, the Adjudant-Reau, gracefully passes the Monument of Joan of Arc atop the Ballon d'Alsace in the Vosges Mountains of France. Built in 1892, the monument stands at an altitude of 1,422 meters, making it one of the most famous summits in the region. The summit holds significant strategic importance due to its location on the former French-German border during the disputed territories of Alsace between 1870-1918 and 1940-1945. The monument, depicting Joan of Arc on horseback, serves as a symbol of French resistance and pride. The Rhine Valley below stretches out in the distance, adding to the breathtaking beauty of the scene. In the background, the peaks of Belchen and Elsassser Cairn can be seen, further emphasizing the rugged terrain of the Vosges Mountains. The Adjudant-Reau, a French dirigible, adds an intriguing element to the photograph, showcasing the early advancements in air transportation technology. The airship, with its distinctive shape, contrasts against the traditional stone monument and the natural landscape, offering a glimpse into the future. The Ballon d'Alsace, with its rich history and stunning vistas, has long been a source of inspiration and fascination. This photograph, taken in 1911, captures a unique moment in time, encapsulating the past, present, and future of this disputed territory.
