EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history. It depicts the interior of a military airship van belonging to the Armée de la Loire, as it is attached to the last train departing Orleans on December 5,1870. The engraving, based on a drawing by A. Marie, was created by Gaston Tissandier and published in "Le tour du monde" in 1875. In this scene frozen in time, we see all the aerostiers (airship crew) peacefully asleep inside the van. Their exhausted bodies rest against each other amidst crates and equipment that fill every available space. The weariness etched on their faces tells tales of long hours spent navigating through treacherous skies during wartime. The image offers a glimpse into both the physical demands and emotional toll experienced by these brave men who risked their lives for their country's cause. As they slumber soundly, unaware of being immortalized through art, one can only imagine what dreams or nightmares may have occupied their minds. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of an era when air travel was still in its infancy but played an essential role in warfare strategies. It allows us to reflect upon the sacrifices made by those who paved the way for modern aviation while highlighting the human aspect behind historical events.
