EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a tragic moment in history - the aftermath of the shipwreck of "Lebanon" off the coast of Marseille. The engraving, created by an anonymous French artist in the 20th century, depicts scaphandlers diligently searching for the bodies of victims lost at sea. Published in "Le Petit Parisien" on May 7th, 1903, this powerful image showcases the bravery and determination of these rescuers as they navigate through treacherous waters to bring closure to grieving families. The scuba suits worn by these courageous individuals highlight their commitment to saving lives even under challenging circumstances. The scene is set against the backdrop of France's picturesque Provence Riviera, with its vibrant colors adding depth and emotion to this somber event. The Rhone mouths can be seen flowing into the Mediterranean Sea nearby, reminding us of both nature's beauty and its unforgiving power. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this historical moment through his lens, preserving it for future generations to reflect upon. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst tragedy, humanity's resilience shines through as we come together in times of crisis. As we gaze upon this artwork today, let us remember those who perished in this shipwreck and honor those who risked their lives to save others.
