EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the historic moment when the world took to the skies for the first time, as Jean-Francois Pilatre de Rozier and the Marquis d'Arlandes soared above Paris in the "Figure exacte et proportions, du globe aerostatique" on October 19, 1783. The elaborate hot air balloon, decorated with intricate designs and ornate detailing, reached an altitude of 330 feet and remained airborne for an astonishing nine minutes. This groundbreaking achievement, which marked the beginning of aeronautics, saw mankind leave the earth's surface for the first time and opened up a new frontier of exploration and discovery. The print, created in 1786, serves as a testament to the ingenuity and courage of these pioneering aviators and the sense of wonder and excitement that came with the dawn of aviation. This rare and captivating image, from the Tissandier Collection, offers a unique glimpse into the past and a reminder of the boundless potential of human innovation.
