Maybe it's time to start pondering, if the first photo is an real photo or if it is a piece of art.

Here's what caught my eye
- Could the Surcouf make a turn like that? It does seem kinda tight one. Especially the very end of the turn looks abit 'unnatural'.
- How is it so much "out of water"?
- The net-cutter is very similar to those in german uboats, yet it never was in german hands.
- The few websites I checked about the Surcouf, didnt have this photo. One would think that a good aerial shot like this would be used.
- There appears to be nobody in the conning tower.
- And lastly, I didnt find any information that the Surcouf would have been rebuilt later on nor copied by anyone. While the sub in the photo has it's differences compared to other photos of Surcouf, it could be explained by the possible artist taking a few liberties when making a shot like this.
