EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary aviator Douglas Corrigan next to his iconic 1929 model Curtiss Robin. Known as "Wrong Way". Corrigan, this American pioneer of the skies left an indelible mark on aviation history. In this portrait taken around 1938, we see a young and determined man standing proudly in his aviator jacket, ready to conquer new frontiers. The intensity in his eyes reflects the passion and courage that propelled him to achieve what many considered impossible. Douglas Corrigan earned his famous nickname after a daring transcontinental flight gone awry. In 1938, he had intended to fly from New York City to California but ended up mysteriously landing in Ireland instead. This unexpected turn of events only added fuel to his legend, solidifying him as one of aviation's most enigmatic figures. The vintage aesthetic of this photograph transports us back to an era when flying was still a marvel and pilots were seen as modern-day adventurers. It serves as a reminder of the audacity it took for individuals like Corrigan to push boundaries and defy conventional wisdom. As part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, this print showcases not only the skillful photography by Granger NYC but also pays homage to an extraordinary chapter in American aviation history.
