EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the tranquil scene of Bruges Canal at the sea port of Zeebrugge, Belgium, following the end of the First World War. The serene waters reflect the historic architecture of the canal, yet the remnants of war are evident in the form of three old British cruisers, HMS Thetis, Intrepid, and Iphigenia, which lie sunken and filled with concrete at the bottom. These cruisers were deliberately scuttled during the Zeebrugge Raid in April 1918 as part of an audacious British operation to block the German navy's use of the port. The port had been a crucial base for the German navy, and the successful raid significantly disrupted their operations. The date of this photograph is estimated to be circa late 1918-1919, providing a poignant reminder of the Great War's impact on the world. The scene is a testament to the resilience of Bruges and Belgium, as well as the determination of the Allied forces to turn the tide of the war.
