EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in the history of air transport - the balloon test flight by Vicente Lunardi before King Charles IV and the entire royal family on January 8, 1793. The etching on paper by Jose Rodriguez perfectly encapsulates the excitement and wonder of this aerial demonstration.

As people gather below to witness this marvel of technology, there is an undeniable sense of joy and anticipation in the air.
Lunardi, known for his pioneering work in aeronautics, is depicted as he lifts off into the sky with grace and confidence. His hot air balloon symbolizes not only scientific progress but also human ingenuity and determination.
