EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases an artist's imaginative rendition of the Aerial Steam Carriage, or Ariel, a pioneering flying machine conceived by inventors William Samuel Henson and John Stringfellow in the 1840s. The Ariel, patented in 1842, was designed with a propeller-driven system and wings, making it an early precursor to modern aircraft. The image, granted permission to be published by the inventors, is dedicated to the Directors of the Aerial Transit Company. The Ariel's sleek and innovative design, complete with a raised Union Jack flag, captivated the public's imagination and marked a significant milestone in the history of flight. Spectators gather around, eager to witness the marvel of this aerial contraption, as it hovers above the ground, poised for takeoff. This enchanting impression of the Ariel, created in the 1840s, serves as a testament to the visionary spirit of its creators and their groundbreaking contribution to transportation technology.
