EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a powerful projection device enlarging a microscopic photographic film. The film bears minuscule dispatches brought to Paris by carrier pigeons, an extraordinary method of communication in that era. The image is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the early days of aerial transportation. The illustration was created for "La Navigation Aerienne" by J Lecornu, featured in its third edition published by Vuibert & Nony in 1910. It depicts the process of enlarging these microscopic messages using advanced technology at the time. The scene captures the excitement surrounding aviation during this period, as flight was still considered a remarkable achievement. The aircraft depicted resembles an early aeroplane, highlighting humanity's fascination with conquering the skies. Notably, this artwork provides insight into unconventional means of transport utilized before modern communication systems were established. Pigeons played an integral role in delivering important information swiftly across long distances. The presence of various bird species within the image adds depth and intrigue to this historical piece. From tooth-billed pigeons to sea birds and fowls, it emphasizes our connection with wildlife and nature even amidst technological advancements. Overall, this print serves as both a visual delight and a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation and communication methods throughout history.
