收藏资源简介:
"Der englische Kriegshafen Simonstown." ("The English war harbor Simonstown."). In the distance the picture shows a coast line at the foot of two mountains, above them clouds. A couple of big ships in front of it. In the center of the picture the sea. In the foreground rocks on the coast. Rail ways leading along the coast line. A sign standing next to it. A fence between the coast and the sandy road in the foreground of the picture. Imprinted on the image: "1501."; Cf. photo no. 1502 and no. 1503. As picture no. 1502 which shows several large ships in the harbor of Simonstown during war time and picture no. 1503 which shows the same kinds of ships this picture was probably also taken during the First World War as the large number of big ships near the coast might indicate.
英国战时军港西蒙斯敦(Simonstown)。画面远景为两座山脚下的海岸线,山峦上方覆有云层;紧邻海岸线处停泊有多艘大型舰船,画面中心为开阔海域,近景为海岸带的岩礁。沿海岸线铺设了铁路,铁路旁侧设有标识牌;海岸与画面近景处的沙土路之间设有围栏。画面印有编号"1501";可对照编号1502与1503号照片参阅。鉴于1502号照片展现了战时西蒙斯敦港内的多艘大型舰船,1503号照片也呈现了同类舰船,结合本画面中海岸附近聚集大量大型舰船的特征,可推测本照片同样拍摄于第一次世界大战期间。
