EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of chaos and humor from the 18th century. Titled "Cartoon on the fire of Miolan and Janinets balloon, July 11,1784" it depicts an engraving by the French School. The image showcases a caricatured scene that combines transport vehicles with satire. In this artwork, we witness an amusing incident involving arson and an aerostat (a type of hot air balloon). The artist's wit shines through as they playfully depict the mishap that occurred on July 11,1784. The cartoon-like style adds to the lightheartedness of the scene. The Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris houses this remarkable piece, which has been preserved throughout history for us to enjoy today. Thanks to Leonard de Selva's photography skills, we can appreciate every detail captured in this photograph. As you explore this image further, take note of how it reflects both historical events and artistic expression from its time period. This print is not only visually appealing but also offers insights into transportation methods and social commentary during the late 18th century.
