Artist's commentary

  • Original
  • Handley-Pages setting out to bomb the Germans

    Handley-Page bombers on a mission, Western Front, during World War I. This photograph is attributed to Tom Aitken. The photographer had clearly been taken in one of the bombers as this photograph has been shot from one aeroplane, looking down on a second. Part of the wing fuselage of the higher plane can be seen at the edge of the picture. This photograph appears to have been censored as the word 'stopped' is written in blue pencil on the back. Handley-Page 0/100 bombers had been used from 1916, but these two aeroplanes are probably the 0/400 which was put into production early in 1918. [Original reads: 'OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN ON THE BRITISH WESTERN FRONT IN FRANCE. Handley-Pages setting out to bomb the Germans.']
