EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a momentous event in the history of transportation and scientific experimentation. The image showcases the first electric aerostat to helice, which was developed by Albert (1839-1906) and Gaston Tissandier (1843-1899), two pioneering French scientists. The year is 1883, and on Monday, October 8th, this groundbreaking invention took flight. The aerostat's propeller-like design symbolizes the fusion of modernity and advancement that characterized this era. It represents France's commitment to pushing boundaries and embracing new technologies. Albert, known for his contributions as an editor of the magazine "La Nature" collaborated with Gaston Tissandier to bring their vision to life. This experimental aircraft harnessed electricity as its power source, marking a significant leap forward in aviation. The artist behind this remarkable engraving remains unknown but has perfectly captured the essence of this historic moment. The fine details evoke a sense of awe and wonder at the possibilities that lay ahead. Today, this print resides in a private collection as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of progress. It serves as a reminder that innovation knows no bounds when driven by curiosity and determination. Stefano Bianchetti's restoration work has preserved this piece for generations to come, ensuring that we can continue marveling at the achievements made during those transformative times.
