Athenes vue en avion; Plan correspondant a la photographie ci-dessous
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating image from the First World War era, dating back to 1916. The creator of this remarkable piece remains unknown, but it was published in "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVIII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916." This photograph captures an aerial view of Athens, the ancient capital city of Greece, during a time of war. The image is a stark contrast to the vibrant colors and bustling energy of the city today, as it presents a monochrome, bird's-eye perspective of the cityscape. Prominent structures such as the Acropolis, the Royal Palace, and the Zappeion stand out in the image, offering a unique vantage point that was unattainable during that time. The Macedonian and Salonika fronts, significant battlefields during the First World War, were likely in close proximity, making this aerial view a testament to the war's impact on the city. The accompanying map, "Plan correspondant a la photographie ci-dessous," provides context to the image, allowing viewers to locate and identify various landmarks within the city. This combination of photograph and map offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of Athens during a pivotal moment in time. The print's intricate details, achieved through ink techniques, showcase the meticulous craftsmanship of the unknown artist. The image's title, "Athenes vue en avion," translates to "Athens seen from a plane," further emphasizing the innovative technology that made this perspective possible during the early 20th century. This piece serves as a reminder of the rich history and resilience of Athens, even amidst the challenges of war.
