"The Beginning of Aviation: A Journey Through Time and Triumph" Step back in time to witness the remarkable beginnings of aviation, captured through a series of captivating hints. In a black-and-white photograph, we see Raymonde De Laroche taking her place at the helm of a biplane, marking her historic ascent into the skies. The image transports us to an era where dreams took flight against all odds. In another snapshot from 1914, "L'alsace Heuree; L'aeroplane, " we catch a glimpse of the souvenir from Colmar prison - an aircraft that symbolizes both freedom and innovation. It serves as a testament to human resilience and determination amidst adversity. Wilbur Wright's portrait by D'ostoya in "L'Assiette au Beurre" showcases his pioneering spirit as he fearlessly explores new frontiers above the clouds. His unwavering passion for flight ignites our imagination and fuels our desire to conquer uncharted territories. "My village, those who do not forget: July 14" captures the collective memory etched in history when aviation became intertwined with national celebrations. The sky becomes a canvas on which patriotism soars high above borders and boundaries. Aviator Wilbur Wright sweeps through an exhibition at the Motor Show with a Ducellier lighthouse illuminating his path. This moment immortalized in "La Vie Parisienne" epitomizes progress and technological advancements that continue to shape modern aviation. However, progress is not without its setbacks. On October 1st in Milan, tragedy strikes as two aircraft collide – marking one of aviation's first air accidents. This somber reminder reminds us of the risks pioneers faced while pushing boundaries beyond what was thought possible. Alberto Santos-Dumont's portrait reveals yet another visionary mind behind this revolutionary era. As a Brazilian engineer dedicated to conquering the skies, he personifies courage and innovation that transcends borders.
