EDITORS COMMENTS
Ypres - The Dump. Hill 60, Zillebeke: A poignant and powerful reminder of the brutal realities of the First World War, this evocative photograph captures the haunting landscape of Hill 60 in Zillebeke, near Ypres, Belgium. The hill, a strategic position during the Battle of Ypres in 1914 and 1915, was the site of intense fighting and the location of several British artillery batteries. The image, taken around the 1920s, shows the remnants of the infamous 'Dump' - a vast mound of rubble, debris, and human remains, created by the relentless shelling and bombardment that characterized the war. Map references I 29c : 28NW4/NE3 mark the location of this poignant site, a stark reminder of the devastating impact of the conflict. The photograph is dedicated to Captain Edward Handley-Read, RBA - Machine Gun Corps, who served during the war. Born in 1869, Handley-Read was a British painter and etcher, best known for his topographical works and his depictions of military scenes. His first-hand experience of the war undoubtedly influenced his art, and this image of Hill 60 is a testament to the historical significance and emotional resonance of his work. Captured in black and white, the photograph evokes a sense of melancholy and contemplation, inviting us to reflect on the sacrifices made during the First World War. The image stands as a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict, and the enduring power of art to preserve and commemorate history.
