EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion at Villacoublay aerodrome, where H. M. Alfonso XIII, the King of Spain, is seen congratulating the air force aviators. The image, which serves as the back cover illustration from Le Petit Journal's supplement illustre on 18th May 1913, showcases a vibrant display of colors through its lithographic technique. In this historic snapshot taken by an anonymous French School artist from the 20th century, we witness King Alfonso XIII adorned in his regal attire and top hat as he stands amidst a group of military aviators. The atmosphere exudes pride and honor as these brave men receive recognition for their remarkable achievements in aviation. The setting itself adds to the grandeur of the moment; Villacoublay aerodrome provides a picturesque backdrop with its vast open space and aircraft scattered across the airfield. Spanish flags proudly wave in celebration while medals glisten on uniforms, symbolizing valor and dedication. As His Majesty engages with these courageous individuals who have mastered the skies above, one cannot help but admire their commitment to pushing boundaries and embracing progress. This photograph encapsulates not only an important event but also represents a significant era when aviation was still in its infancy. Preserved within this private collection, this image allows us to delve into history and appreciate both technological advancements and human triumphs that have shaped our world today.
