EDIT... no, it's not, judging by the dropout position. And the brake...
Judging by dropout position relative to the angle of the steerer, it most definitely is bent. You can see that an impact to the dropout side (front) of the fork pushed the stanchions back against the steerer. The crown absorbed most of the force.
