EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print transports us back to the historic moment of the Balloon Descent by the Robert Brothers and Colin Hullin near Bethune, France on September 19, 1784. The scene unfolds in the Plaine de Beuvry, a vast open area north of Paris in Artois. The Robert Brothers, Jean-François and Jacques-Étienne, and their passenger, Colin Hullin, had embarked on their groundbreaking hot air balloon journey from the Tuileries Gardens in Paris earlier that day. The excitement in the crowd is palpable as they eagerly anticipate the arrival of the intrepid explorers. The windmill in the foreground, a common feature of the Artois landscape, serves as a picturesque backdrop to the descent. The brothers, skillfully maneuvering their gondola, are guided towards the Chateau de Beuvry, where a grand celebration awaits them that very evening. Transportation to the site is provided for the passengers and the weary travelers, who have witnessed this pioneering feat of the 1780s. The people, filled with a sense of wonder and excitement, pull on ropes to help secure the balloon as it gently touches down, marking the end of an extraordinary journey. This photograph, taken from The Royal Aeronautical Society (National Aerospace Library)/Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into a time when the skies were just beginning to be explored, and the possibilities of human flight were limited only by the bounds of imagination.
