EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable moment in aviation history. The drawing depicts one of Alphonse Penaud's model planophores, an early prototype of an airplane, powered by a twisted rubber band. This particular design was demonstrated in Paris on 18 August 1871, marking a significant milestone in the field of aeronautics. The sketch captures the essence of Penaud's innovative idea with precision and detail. The exterior view reveals the sleek and streamlined structure of the planophore, showcasing its potential for flight. It is fascinating to observe how this French inventor envisioned harnessing the power of a simple rubber band to propel his creation through the air. This image takes us back to late 19th-century science when pioneers like Penaud were pushing boundaries and exploring uncharted territories. Their relentless pursuit of flight laid the foundation for modern aviation as we know it today. As we gaze upon this historical diagram, we can't help but marvel at Penaud's ingenuity and foresight. His planophore represents not only an important step forward in aeronautical engineering but also serves as inspiration for future generations who would go on to revolutionize air travel. Let this print serve as a reminder that great ideas often start with humble beginnings, just like Alphonse Penaud's model plane powered by nothing more than a twisted rubber band.
