EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Depart de Gambetta et de Spuller a bord de la nacelle de l Armand Barbes, le 7 octobre 1870" takes us back to the early days of aviation. The image depicts a significant moment in history when Léon Gambetta and Charles Spuller embarked on an aerial journey aboard the nacelle of the Armand Barbes on October 7th, 1870. The scene is filled with anticipation as these pioneers prepare for their flight. The intricate details captured by the French School artist transport us to that very moment, allowing us to witness this groundbreaking event firsthand. This engraving was later used as an illustration in J Lecornu's book "La Navigation Aerienne" published in its third edition by Vuibert & Nony in 1910. The aircraft itself is a marvel of engineering for its time - a motor plane that defied gravity and opened up new possibilities for transportation. It symbolizes humanity's relentless pursuit of progress and innovation. As we gaze upon this historic print, we are reminded of how far we have come since those early days of flight. From this humble beginning, aviation has evolved into one of the most crucial modes of transport today, connecting people across vast distances and shaping our globalized world. This artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity and reminds us never to underestimate our capacity for exploration and advancement.
