EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the raw power and immense size of a British 9.2 inch Howitzer, a heavy artillery piece designed and manufactured for the British military in 1913. The image, taken during the First World War between 1914 and 1918, shows the gun in its entirety, from the intricate details of its metal components to the large ammunition boxes and wheels at the bottom. The gun's barrel, with its complex rifling, dominates the frame, while the hand of a soldier can be seen at the top, ready to load a heavy shell into the gun. The gun's large caliber made it an effective weapon against fortifications and enemy positions, and its use continued into the Second World War. The 9.2 inch Howitzer was a testament to the technological advancements of the time and the immense effort put into the production of weapons for the war effort. This powerful artillery piece played a significant role in the battles of the Great War, and its image remains a poignant reminder of the conflict that shaped the 20th century.
