EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the tragic death fall of aviator Wachter in Betheny, Marne (Champagne Ardennes) in 1910. Published in the renowned newspaper "Le petit parisien" on July 17th, this print now resides within a private collection. The image showcases the early years of aviation and serves as a reminder of the risks taken by these pioneers. The scene depicts an airplane accident, with Wachter's aircraft plummeting to the ground amidst a sense of chaos and urgency. The engraving skillfully portrays the intensity of the moment, highlighting both the fragility of flight and the bravery required to take to the skies. As one gazes upon this historical artifact, it becomes evident that aviation was still in its infancy during this period. The image offers a glimpse into a time when flying was not yet commonplace but rather an extraordinary feat reserved for daring individuals like Wachter. Stefano Bianchetti expertly captured this significant event through his artistic interpretation. His attention to detail allows viewers to immerse themselves in this pivotal moment from history. This print serves as a poignant reminder of both human ingenuity and vulnerability. While accidents such as these were undoubtedly tragic, they also played a crucial role in advancing aviation safety measures over time.
