EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Gas Industry Pavilion at the Exposition Universelle de 1889, also known as the Paris Exposition, which took place in Paris, France. The exposition, held from May 6 to October 31, 1889, marked the centennial celebration of the French Revolution and showcased the latest technological innovations of the time. The Gas Industry Pavilion, located in the Bois de Boulogne, was a significant attraction, highlighting the advancements and applications of gas technology. The image features an aerial view of the pavilion, with its distinctive dome and intricate ironwork design. The pavilion was designed by architects Charles-Alphonse Gumery and Édouard Lockroy, and its construction was overseen by the Compagnie Générale des Gaz. The pavilion was not only a showcase for gas technology but also served as a testament to the engineering prowess of the late 19th century. The photograph also features a hot air balloon, adding an element of excitement and adventure to the scene. The balloon, piloted by the famous French aeronauts Tissandier brothers, was a popular attraction at the exposition, offering visitors a bird's-eye view of the grounds. The combination of the Gas Industry Pavilion and the hot air balloon represents the spirit of innovation and exploration that defined the Exposition Universelle de 1889. This photograph is a rare and valuable addition to any collection of historical images of the Paris Exposition of 1889, providing a unique perspective on the technological marvels of the late 19th century. The intricate details of the Gas Industry Pavilion and the majestic balloon floating above it make this image a must-have for anyone interested in the history of technology, engineering, and French culture.
