Two airplanes soar through the sky above the extreme spire of the iconic Milan Cathedral, marking their first-ever flight in this daring stunt. The image captures the excitement and awe of onlookers as they gather below to witness this incredible feat of aviation. Men and women alike are seen waving and cheering, their faces filled with anticipation and wonder. The crowd is united in their shared fascination with these flying machines that represent progress and innovation. Amidst the sea of spectators, we can spot aviators clad in their distinctive attire, showcasing bravery and skill as they perform daring maneuvers high above. The planes themselves are a testament to human ingenuity – symbols of our relentless pursuit to conquer new heights. Beltrame's illustration beautifully encapsulates a pivotal moment in history when mankind defied gravity and embarked on a new era of flight. It serves as a reminder that dreams can become reality through determination and courage. This artwork not only celebrates Italian excellence but also pays homage to an extraordinary achievement that forever changed our perception of what is possible. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when two airplanes danced across the skies above Milan Cathedral – an unforgettable spectacle etched into history for generations to come.
