EDITORS COMMENTS
Aventures de Bavolet" - an intriguing 19th-century French adventure comic series comes to life in this print. The image showcases a moment from the story where our hero, Bavolet, the intrepid sailor, embarks on an extraordinary journey to an uncharted land, "Inconnu," aboard a hot air balloon. The excitement of discovery is palpable as Bavolet, dressed in his nautical attire, gazes at the unfamiliar landscape below. Suddenly, two seemingly friendly rabbits approach him, their human-like behavior adding to the surreal experience. However, appearances can be deceiving. The female rabbit, with a mischievous glint in her eyes, attempts to stab Bavolet with a hidden dagger. Caught off guard, Bavolet reacts instinctively and strangles her in self-defense. The shock of this unexpected turn of events is evident on his face. Disenchanted by the violent encounter, Bavolet decides to return to his own country. He jumps out of the balloon and deploys his parachute, ready to leave this strange land behind. The print beautifully captures the essence of the adventure, with Tissandier's masterful use of aerial perspective and intricate detail. This rare piece is a testament to the enduring appeal of the "Aventures de Bavolet" series, which continues to fascinate collectors and scholars of early aeronautics and comic art. This print, dating back to the late 1800s, is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on flight, adventure, or early comic art. It is an authentic piece from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, available for rights-managed licensing.
