EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ernest Petins' groundbreaking aerostatic locomotive of 1850. The contemporary wood engraving beautifully captures the essence of this remarkable invention, which combines elements of aeronautics and locomotion in a truly innovative way. In this image, we see the exterior design of Petins' fanciful flying machine, suspended gracefully in mid-air. Its intricate details highlight the French inventor's creativity and imagination. The aerostat is depicted as a majestic airship, defying gravity with its grandeur. The engraving transports us back to an era when flight was still a distant dream for many. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire to conquer new frontiers. This piece invites us to ponder on the possibilities that lie beyond conventional means of transportation. Petins' invention represents more than just a mode of travel; it symbolizes the spirit of exploration and adventure that defined the middle part of the 19th century. It sparks curiosity about what could have been if his idea had taken flight beyond mere concept. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded that innovation knows no bounds. Even though Petins' aerostatic locomotive may not have found commercial success, it remains an enduring symbol of human determination and our ceaseless pursuit for progress in all realms - both real and imagined.
