Cherbourg -- Scene of Allied First Decisive Victory in France during the Second World War: A Panoramic Map of the Cotentin Peninsula with Cherbourg, as Viewed from the Northern Channel Approaches, by G.H. Davis (1944) This evocative and historically significant print by G.H. Davis captures the strategic importance of Cherbourg during the Second World War. The image showcases a panoramic map of the Cotentin Peninsula, with Cherbourg prominently displayed at the center. The map extends from the northern Channel approaches, providing a comprehensive view of the coastal landscape and the English Channel. In 1944, Cherbourg became the site of the Allied forces' first decisive victory in France. The successful capture of the port city was a crucial turning point in the European theater of the war. The port's deep natural harbor and strategic location made it an essential objective for the Allies, as it offered a much-needed supply line for the advancing forces. The map in the print highlights the strategic importance of Cherbourg and its surrounding areas. The Cotentin Peninsula, located in northwestern France, is depicted in detail, with various towns, villages, and landmarks marked. The English Channel, a vital waterway during the war, is shown in the background, emphasizing the significance of the naval battle that took place in the area. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the pivotal role that Cherbourg played in the Allied forces' successful campaign in France during the Second World War. It is a testament to the historical significance of the region and the importance of strategic planning and military execution in shaping the outcome of major conflicts.
