EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the devastating aftermath of World War II in Saint Malo, France. The image showcases the complete destruction that this once vibrant city endured during the war. The postcard, taken by French photographer Leonard de Selva, serves as a haunting reminder of the horrors of war. Buildings lie in ruins, their walls reduced to rubble and debris scattered across the streets. It is a poignant testament to the resilience and strength of the people who lived through these dark times. The photograph offers a glimpse into history, allowing us to reflect on the immense toll that conflict takes on communities and individuals alike. Despite its somber subject matter, there is an undeniable beauty in this image – perhaps it lies in capturing a moment frozen in time or highlighting humanity's ability to rebuild even amidst devastation. As we gaze upon this powerful photograph, we are reminded of both the fragility and indomitable spirit of human life. It serves as a solemn tribute not only to those who lost their lives but also to those who survived and rebuilt their beloved city from its ashes. This postcard acts as a visual bridge connecting past generations with our present reality – urging us never to forget the lessons learned from such destructive conflicts while inspiring hope for a peaceful future.
