View of a breach in a bastion in Strasbourg as a result of the siege by the German army, Face gauche de la brèche du bastion 12 et porte de pierres, page, photomechanical print, photographer: Charles David Winter, Strasbourg (France), cliché maker: anonymous, printer (person): Goupil & Cie., 1870, printer (person), paper, Woodburytype, height 101 mm x width 170 mm, Print on frontispiece., landscape with ruins, assault, siege, consequences of war, A wide, sepia-toned scene shows a ruined landscape with crumbling stone walls and mounds of rubble descending to a dark body of water in the foreground, jagged exposed brick and arch shapes visible in the ruins. On the higher ground above the ruins are silhouettes of bare, leafless tree trunks and sparse branches rising against a cloudy sky. Small human figures stand and sit along the ridge, their forms dark and indistinct. On the right a partially collapsed building with broken beams and torn masonry leans over the edge of the ruin, with scattered debris around its base. The sky is filled with textured clouds, and the overall image has a high-contrast, aged photographic look.
