EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving, titled "View from the terrace of Monsieur Franklin at Passy of the first flight under the direction of Monsieur de Montgolfier, 21st November 1783" takes us back to a momentous event in history. The image showcases an aerial view from Monsieur Franklin's terrace, capturing the breathtaking sight of the very first hot air balloon flight. The scene is filled with wonder and excitement as onlookers marvel at this groundbreaking innovation. The pioneering brothers Etienne and Joseph Montgolfier are seen directing their creation into the sky, defying gravity and pushing boundaries like never before. Their invention symbolizes human ingenuity and our unyielding desire to explore new frontiers. Amidst this spectacle stands Francois Pilatre de Rozier, a brave adventurer who would later become known as one of aviation's early pioneers. His presence adds a touch of daring to an already awe-inspiring moment. This print not only immortalizes a significant milestone in aviation history but also serves as a reminder of Benjamin Franklin's involvement in fostering scientific advancements during his time in France. It is through his support that such remarkable feats were made possible. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to that crisp autumn day in 1783 when humanity took its first steps towards conquering the skies. It reminds us that innovation knows no bounds and encourages us to continue pushing beyond what seems impossible.
