Farman aeroplane in flight. The Farman planes were designed and built in France by the Farman brothers Henry and Maurice. Henry Farman bought one of the first commercially sold aeroplanes in 1907, and by 1908 had designed his own plane. The Farman brothers designed and constructed more than 200 aeroplane models between 1908 and 1941.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous milestone in aviation history - the Farman aeroplane in flight. Designed and built by the visionary Farman brothers, Henry and Maurice, this pioneering aircraft took to the skies in 1909. Henry Farman's passion for flying began when he purchased one of the first commercially sold aeroplanes in 1907. Inspired by his experience, he embarked on designing his own plane just a year later. The result was an extraordinary feat of engineering that marked the beginning of their remarkable journey. The Farman brothers went on to create over 200 different models of aeroplanes between 1908 and 1941, leaving an indelible mark on the world of aviation. This photograph, dating back to 1909, is a testament to their groundbreaking achievements. In this image, we see the Farman aeroplane soaring through the sky with grace and elegance. Its wings outstretched against a backdrop of clouds symbolize human triumph over gravity itself. A lone pilot sits at its helm, embodying courage and daring as they navigate uncharted territory. This snapshot from history showcases not only technological advancement but also highlights humanity's insatiable desire for exploration and progress. It serves as a reminder that every great leap forward begins with pioneers like Henry and Maurice Farman who dared to dream beyond what seemed possible. Preserved by Library of Congress/Science Photo Library, this print immortalizes an era where wheels touched airfields
