The scene depicts "La Commission du 13 juillet 1901" a group of esteemed individuals gathered to witness and record the return of aircraft number five.

With its attention to detail and technical accuracy, this engraving serves as both a testament to human ingenuity and an homage to those who paved the way for modern air travel.
