EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Le ballon captif a vapeur Giffard" installed in the courtyard of the Tuileries during the 1878 Universal Exhibition. The engraving, created by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century, is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into early aerial transportation. The image depicts this magnificent steam-powered captive balloon soaring above the bustling exhibition grounds.
