EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the wreckage of the Hawker and Grieves Sopwith Atlantic, a plane that was used in an ambitious attempt to cross the treacherous Atlantic Ocean. The photograph, taken by an English photographer in the early 20th century, is now part of a private collection. The image shows the mangled fuselage of the aircraft, which had been wrecked during its ill-fated journey. The brave pilots Kenneth Grieve and Harry Hawker had embarked on this daring adventure with hopes of making history by completing a transatlantic flight. Displayed on a postcard from that era, this photograph serves as a reminder of their valiant efforts and the risks they took to push boundaries in aviation. It also highlights London's involvement in early aviation endeavors, as it was recovered near Selfridges department store. The wreckage stands as testament to both human ingenuity and nature's unforgiving power. Despite their best efforts, these pioneers were unable to conquer the vast expanse of ocean before them. This image offers viewers a glimpse into an era when flying across continents was still considered an audacious feat. It sparks curiosity about those who dared to challenge conventional limits and paves the way for future advancements in air travel.
