EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the removal of the remains of zeppelin L21 from Adastral House to the grounds of the HAC in Sunhill Row. Taken on 23 September 1916 by renowned photographer Alfieri, this monochrome image transports us back to the early 20th century, specifically the tumultuous years of World War I. The scene is filled with a sense of both awe and destruction as workers carefully dismantle what was once an imposing airship. The sheer size and remnants of L21 are evident, serving as a haunting reminder of the devastating power unleashed during wartime. Against a backdrop reminiscent of European architecture, this photograph encapsulates not only an era but also highlights humanity's resilience amidst chaos. As we delve into this slice of history captured through Alfieri's lens, it becomes apparent that this image holds immense historical value. It represents not just one event but symbolizes an entire decade marked by conflict and transformation - the nineteen tens transitioning into the roaring twenties. This photograph serves as a visual testament to those who lived through these turbulent times and reminds us all to reflect upon our past while looking towards a more peaceful future.
