EDITORS COMMENTS
King Edward VII converses with aviation pioneer Wilbur Wright at Le Mans in 1909, during the momentous occasion when the daring aviator took to the skies over the picturesque South of France. This print captures a historic encounter between royalty and innovation, as King Edward VII engages in conversation with one of the world's foremost aviators. The Wright Brothers had initially chosen Le Mans as their destination for flight demonstrations; however, adverse weather conditions prompted them to relocate their awe-inspiring feats to Pont Long in Pau. It was here that they astounded onlookers with a series of groundbreaking flights from February 1909. This image transports us back to an era when aviation was still in its infancy but held boundless promise. The photograph showcases not only King Edward VII's fascination with this new mode of transport but also highlights Wilbur Wright's pioneering spirit and determination. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history, we are reminded of the courage and ingenuity required by these early aviators who dared to defy gravity. Their unwavering pursuit of flight forever changed our world and paved the way for modern air travel. This stunning print serves as a timeless reminder of humanity's relentless quest for progress and how individuals like Wilbur Wright played an instrumental role in shaping our future.
