EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Acrobatic Photography, 1932" takes us back to a thrilling moment in history. Captured by an anonymous European photographer from the 19th century, this image showcases the daring world of acrobatic photography. The photograph was originally featured as an illustration for Vu magazine on July 6,1932. It depicts a heart-stopping scene high above the bustling streets of Manhattan, New York City. Two brave men are seen standing on the wings of a fighter aircraft, risking life and limb to capture breathtaking aerial shots. In an era when aviation was still relatively new and dangerous, these photographers pushed boundaries and defied gravity to document the world from extraordinary perspectives. Tied to their cameras with ropes for safety measures but still exposed to great risks, they exemplify true bravery and passion for their craft. The image not only highlights the audacity of these photographers but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity in conquering new frontiers. The aircraft itself is a symbol of progress and innovation in transportation during that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured through lens and film, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of technology while appreciating those who fearlessly paved the way for modern-day aerial photography.
