EDITORS COMMENTS
(The most remarkable conquest of humanity, the wings) is a captivating print from 1922, showcasing the relentless human pursuit of flight throughout history. The image, filled with intrigue and symbolism, depicts a fallen winged figure, symbolizing past failed attempts at flight, surrounded by figures in historical costumes representing various eras. Among them, we find ancient Greeks, medieval knights, and even an astronaut from the space age. The focal point of the print is a winged figure determinedly soaring towards an airplane, symbolizing the culmination of human efforts and the achievement of powered flight. The juxtaposition of the mythological and the modern creates a striking contrast, emphasizing the progress humanity has made in just a few centuries. The print serves as a testament to human ingenuity, determination, and the relentless drive to push the boundaries of what is possible. It is a visual representation of the human spirit, constantly striving for advancement and innovation. The date, 1922, marks a significant period in the history of aviation, as it was a time when commercial air travel was just beginning to take off, making this print an intriguing snapshot of a pivotal moment in human history.
