EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative print captures a pivotal moment during World War I on the Western Front. The image shows a French Farman F-40 aircraft coming under intense German fire as it bravely directs artillery over Avocourt. This dangerous duty was crucial in guiding the accuracy of artillery fire, but also put the pilots at great risk.
The intensity of the situation is palpable in this photograph, with explosions visible in the background and smoke billowing from the ground below. The bravery and skill of these pilots cannot be overstated, as they navigated through enemy fire to support their fellow soldiers on the ground.
This image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who served during this tumultuous time in history. It highlights not only the technological advancements that were made during World War I, but also the incredible courage displayed by individuals like those depicted in this scene.
As we reflect on events such as these, it is important to honor and remember those who fought for freedom and peace. This print from Mary Evans Picture Library encapsulates a moment of both danger and valor that will forever be etched into our collective memory.
