EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a historic moment in aviation history - the first manned balloon flight across Paris on November 21,1783. The image showcases Pilatre de Rozier and the Marquis d'Arlandes embarking on their daring journey, suspended beneath a majestic hot air balloon. The scene is filled with anticipation as crowds gather below to witness this extraordinary feat of human ingenuity. The intricate details of the cityscape below provide a sense of scale and emphasize the audacity of their endeavor. This print, created by an anonymous French artist from the 19th century, was originally featured in "La Navigation Aerienne" by J Lecornu. It serves as both a visual record and an homage to this groundbreaking achievement in aerial transportation. Looking at this engraving today, we are reminded of how far we have come since that fateful day over two centuries ago. From these humble beginnings emerged our modern world of aviation - where planes now soar through the skies effortlessly and connect people across continents. As we gaze upon this artwork, it's impossible not to feel inspired by the courage and determination exhibited by those early pioneers who dared to dream beyond what seemed possible. This piece serves as a testament to human innovation and reminds us that sometimes all it takes is one bold leap into the unknown to change history forever.
