EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a historic moment during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. Taken by the renowned photographer Nadar (Félix Tournachon), it showcases "Le Neptune" an observation balloon departing from Place Saint-Pierre in Montmartre, Paris. Amidst the Siege of Paris, Le Neptune played a crucial role in communication and transportation. Laden with an impressive load of 125 kg (276 lb) of mail, this gas balloon symbolized hope and resilience amidst adversity. The gelatin silver printing out print technique used to create this image adds depth and texture to its black-and-white composition. Nadar's keen eye for detail allows us to witness the determination on the face of one brave man who is partaking in this aerial journey. As he gazes into the distance from within the basket, we can only imagine his thoughts as he embarks on this daring adventure. This photograph not only serves as a testament to Nadar's artistic prowess but also provides us with a glimpse into history. It reminds us of humanity's unwavering spirit even during times of conflict and uncertainty. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this heritage art piece invites viewers to reflect upon concepts such as air transport and communication throughout history. It stands as a powerful reminder that innovation knows no bounds when faced with challenges. Let Nadar's remarkable work transport you back in time to witness this extraordinary moment captured through his lens - an ode to human ingenuity and perseverance against all odds.
