EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a moment in history during the Manpowered Project of 1922. In the image, a grinning cyclist can be seen attempting to get his glider airborne at the Parc des Princes stadium in Paris. However, it is clear that his wing is woefully inadequate to carry his weight, resulting in an unsuccessful flight attempt.
The photograph provides a glimpse into the world of early aviation and experimental transport methods. The determination and enthusiasm of the cyclist are evident as he tries to defy gravity and soar through the air like the birdmen before him.
The historical significance of this image is palpable, showcasing a time when individuals were pushing boundaries and exploring new possibilities for human-powered flight. Despite facing challenges and setbacks, these pioneers paved the way for future innovations in aviation.
As we look back on this moment captured in July 1922, we are reminded of the courage and ingenuity required to push beyond our limits and reach for the skies. The Manpowered Project serves as a reminder of how far we have come in transportation history while also inspiring us to continue reaching for new heights in innovation and exploration.
