Title
The Loos Salient and Burning Lens
Description
Accompanying text reads:
"The high ground on the right of the drawing is the North side of the ridge of Notre Dame de Lorette. On its left, in the distance, is seen the smoke of incendiary fires lit by the Germans in Lens, where great explosions were to be heard from the time when our attack on its outskirts began. More to the left, on the plain below, may be picked out the villages of Aix-Noelette, Grenay, Bully Grenay, and the more distant Loos."
