EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Nacelle du Geant apres la catastrophe" takes us back to the early days of aviation. Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a moment of tragedy and devastation in the history of flight. The image depicts the aftermath of a catastrophic event involving an enormous airship known as "Nacelle du Geant". The wreckage is strewn across the landscape, serving as a stark reminder of the risks and dangers faced by early aviators. Despite its somber subject matter, there is an undeniable sense of awe and wonder in witnessing this historic scene. Originally published as an illustration for J Lecornu's book on aerial navigation, this artwork provides valuable insight into the evolution of aviation technology during that time. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to conquer the skies. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back in time to witness one chapter in humanity's ongoing quest for flight. This print not only showcases our fascination with aircraft but also reminds us of how far we have come since those early days when flying was still fraught with uncertainty.
