Title: Sweeping the North Sea mine barrage, 1918-1919.
Caption: Spreading slowly out around the ship is a circle of brown discolored water, marking the explosion of a mine at the deepest level. Large bubbles of black oily substance, apparently the product of an explosion, can be seen on the surface of the water.
