EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a historic moment in aviation history - the journey from Compiegne to London by airship. The top section of the print showcases Bayard Clement gracefully landing at Wormwood Scrubbs, while below, English soldiers can be seen diligently towing the airship into its hangar. Published on October 30th, 1910, in the renowned newspaper "Le petit parisien" this engraving offers a glimpse into an era when air travel was still in its infancy. The image exudes a sense of adventure and innovation as it depicts one of humanity's earliest attempts to conquer the skies. The composition is beautifully detailed, with every line meticulously etched to convey both the grandeur and fragility of these early flying machines. The contrast between the vast open sky above and the bustling activity on land below adds depth and intrigue to this historical snapshot. Preserved within a private collection, this print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination. It transports us back in time to an age where dreams took flight amidst uncertainty and excitement. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry by Stefano Bianchetti, we are reminded of how far we have come since those pioneering days of aviation.
