This print titled "Mieres moon in an airplane" by Achille Beltrame takes us back to a momentous occasion in Toulouse, France, during the early 20th century. The image captures the unique wedding celebration of a schoolteacher and a lieutenant aviator. After exchanging vows at the church, the newlyweds embarked on their honeymoon adventure aboard an airplane. As they bid farewell to their guests below, the couple's departure is met with curiosity and awe from the crowd gathered outside. The bride waves goodbye while holding a bouquet of flowers, her white dress billowing in the wind as she climbs into the aircraft alongside her husband. The scene is both bizarre and enchanting, showcasing how aviation was becoming intertwined with everyday life. It symbolizes not only love but also progress and modernity.
