Black and white horizontal photograph with the printed caption "RHEIMS. - CATHEDRAL IN BACKGROUND." The photograph shows the city Reims and its damage as a result of World War I (likely from German strategic bombing, 1917-1918). In the foreground is what looks like a pile of rubble made of stone/bricks and wooden beams. In the background is the Rheims Cathedral, which was also partially damaged during the war.
