EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Caricature sur le Vaisseau volant de Blanchard" takes us back to the early days of aviation. Created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, this engraving showcases a whimsical and satirical depiction of flying. The image portrays a fantastical flying vessel, with exaggerated features and comically oversized wings. It is clear that the artist's intention was not to create a realistic representation but rather to entertain and amuse viewers through caricature. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for "La Navigation Aerienne" by J Lecornu, published in 1910. The book explores the concept of aerial navigation during a time when flight was still considered a daring feat reserved for dreamers and inventors. Looking closely at this print, one can't help but marvel at how far we have come since then. From these early attempts at flight to our modern-day aircrafts that effortlessly soar through the skies, it is evident that human ingenuity knows no bounds when it comes to conquering new frontiers. Whether you are an aviation enthusiast or simply appreciate art that captures historical moments, this print serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of progress and innovation in transportation.
