It is not so far-fetched to think a photographer would take combat photos, especially of something like the tragic death of the Second Empire.US2UKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16444096693489023696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3540422532905916301.post-8331465223464756542023-01-12T11:55:39.481-08:002023-01-12T11:55:39.481-08:00Would that be Pennsylvania Avenue?Would that be Pennsylvania Avenue?Curt J Robinettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01961790899051263859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3540422532905916301.post-30147315087013342732022-09-19T13:43:40.414-07:002022-09-19T13:43:40.414-07:00Very cool.

Its hard to say definitively from the photo, even the zoomed in version going round but they all appear to be german with spiked helmets. The house in the foreground has battle damage, so it seem to have been done some time near the battle if not during it. I cant tell if some of the figures have been put on the plate afterwards. Some appear to have very similar poses and outlines but that could be that a) there all got pretty much the same kit and b) theres only so many ways to fire a rifle and reload it.<br /><br />I may have been a german recreation say 2 days after or something. As for being taken at the time, theres a treeline back up the hill to the left (north) of the road that was probably the photo spot and would be a natural blocking position if you were a) french and b) trying to stop the germans heading to Sedan. But stuffed if I would be sitting there with a tripod and heavy camera. Maybe he stuffed it over a rock wall and took a photo and then pulled it back down, reloaded and tried again.<br /><br />The later pictures with germans quite close look at the camera seem a bit sus (i.e. staged) but if you were staging something you would tell people NOT to look at the camera. Maybe the german rifleman were really in combat and were going "What the heck is that?" :)<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11099585503729221954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3540422532905916301.post-78097593320135797942020-11-12T17:15:33.304-08:002020-11-12T17:15:33.304-08:00It's a very good photo.
