EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating lithograph titled "Shall have permitted us to make flying submarines, Aviation will have said its last word" by Joaquin Xaudaru y Echau takes us on a whimsical journey into the realm of imagination. Created in the early 20th century, this satirical cartoon offers a humorous take on the possibilities of aviation technology. The artwork depicts a scene where an aircraft has crashed into the sea, causing chaos and destruction. Amidst the wreckage, we see a group of people desperately trying to salvage what remains of their vessel. However, what makes this image truly intriguing is the presence of flying submarines hovering above them. Xaudaru's illustration playfully suggests that once aviation reaches such heights as creating flying submarines, it would mark the pinnacle of human achievement in this field. The artist's use of bold colors adds vibrancy and depth to his satirical commentary on technological advancements. Through this piece, Xaudaru invites viewers to question our fascination with progress and innovation while reminding us not to lose sight of our limitations. It serves as a reminder that even with all our advancements, accidents can still happen and unforeseen consequences may arise. Overall, "Shall have permitted us to make flying submarines" is both visually striking and thought-provoking. It captures a moment in time when dreams collided with reality in an imaginative yet cautionary tale about humanity's relentless pursuit for advancement in aviation technology.
