Taken by Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame in 1929, it showcases the exceptional jump of renowned American rider Bonnie Gray during the grand celebrations for the inauguration of Glendale's magnificent airfield in California. In this remarkable image, we witness Gray fearlessly leaping through the air on her trusty steed amidst a backdrop of cheering crowds and soaring airplanes. The scene is both unusual and exhilarating, as riders and animals alike become part of an unforgettable celebration. Beltrame's masterful use of color lithography brings to life every detail of this historic event. From the vibrant planes flying overhead to the spirited horses below, each element contributes to a sense of awe-inspiring energy that permeates throughout. This photograph not only commemorates a significant milestone in aviation but also symbolizes human determination and courage.
