EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Experience de Degen au Champ de Mars, le 5 octobre 1815 (caricature)" takes us back to the early days of aviation. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this engraving showcases a humorous and satirical portrayal of an aerial experiment. Set against the backdrop of Champ de Mars, on October 5th, 1815, we witness a daring individual named Degen attempting to fly using a contraption resembling an airplane. The caricature captures both the excitement and skepticism surrounding early flight attempts during this era. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for "La Navigation Aerienne" by J Lecornu in its third edition published by Vuibert & Nony in 1910. It offers a glimpse into how people envisioned air travel before it became a reality. The image depicts Degen's aircraft with its primitive design and comical features. It serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of conquering the skies despite initial setbacks and challenges faced during these experimental times. As we observe this historical piece from our private collection, we are transported to an era when imagination soared alongside these early flying machines. This print is not only a testament to human ingenuity but also reminds us that every great achievement begins with bold dreams and courageous individuals willing to push boundaries.
