EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting vintage lantern slide depicts the aftermath of an air raid on Shanghai, China, likely in the year 1937. The once bustling streets of this historic city lie in ruins, as the remnants of Victorian and Edwardian architecture are reduced to rubble. The serene tranquility of the scene is shattered by the ominous presence of smoke rising from the destruction, a chilling reminder of the devastating impact of war. The Japanese Imperial Army, under the command of General Iwamoto, launched a series of air raids on Shanghai beginning in late August 1937, marking the beginning of the Second Sino-Japanese War. The bombing campaign targeted both military and civilian areas, leaving countless lives in ruins and causing widespread destruction. The image captures the stark contrast between the beauty and elegance of Shanghai's past and the brutal reality of its present. The once grand buildings, now reduced to twisted metal and broken bricks, serve as a poignant reminder of the fragility of peace and the devastating consequences of conflict. The lantern slide, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into history, allowing us to bear witness to the past and reflect on the lessons it holds for the present. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of peace and understanding in a rapidly changing world.
