Ballon Chute Generale Tissandier Aeronautics Gonesse
EDITORS COMMENTS
Allarme generale des habitants de Gonesse occasioned by the Fall of the Montgolfier Brothers' Unmanned Gas Balloon, The Globe, on August 27, 1783. This historic print depicts the unmanned gas balloon, The Globe, which caused great alarm among the residents of Gonesse, France upon its unexpected landing. The Montgolfier Brothers, Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Étienne, had made history just a few weeks earlier on June 4, 1783, with the successful manned flight of the Montgolfier brothers' hot air balloon, the Montgolfier Brothers' L'Montgolfier, marking the beginning of aeronautics. However, their latest innovation, an unmanned gas balloon, inadvertently landed in the village of Gonesse, causing widespread panic among the villagers. The print, titled "Allarme generale des habitants de Gonesse occasioned by the Fall of the Montgolfier Brothers' Unmanned Gas Balloon, The Globe, on August 27, 1783," captures the moment of fear and uncertainty as the villagers gather to observe the mysterious object. The image, taken from a vantage point using an optical device, shows the unmanned gas balloon, The Globe, hovering above the village. The print serves as a testament to the awe and trepidation that accompanied the early days of aeronautics and the unknown. This rare and intriguing print is part of the Tissandier Collection and offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the impact of the Montgolfier Brothers' groundbreaking achievements on the people of the time.
