EDITORS COMMENTS
The Man in the Moon, 1648 (1887) captures the imagination and innovation of the 17th century. This print, created by artist Gaston Tissandier, showcases a bizarre yet fascinating concept of flight. The frontispiece of a novel by Gonzales from 1648 comes to life as we witness a man soaring through the sky with the help of a contraption pulled by birds. In this monochrome masterpiece, Tissandier's artistic prowess shines through as he skillfully depicts the male figure suspended in mid-air, defying gravity. The intricate details of the contraption highlight his deep understanding of science and invention during that era. It is truly an artwork ahead of its time. The image evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about early aviation experiments. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are transported back to an age when humans dared to dream big and push boundaries. It serves as a reminder that even in centuries past, people were driven to explore new possibilities. 'The Man in the Moon' is not just an art media representation; it symbolizes human ambition and our relentless pursuit for progress. Gaston Tissandier's work continues to inspire generations with its timeless message - that no idea is too outlandish or impossible if one has enough courage to pursue it.
