In the enchanting year of 1907, the Airship Nulli Secundus gracefully floated over the majestic city of London. As it soared through the skies, its presence was marked by a proud hoisting of the Union Jack flag on the iconic Victoria Tower. The sight was truly awe-inspiring as this magnificent airship traversed above London's bustling streets. The Airship Nulli Secundus made multiple appearances in that eventful year, capturing hearts with its ethereal flight over the capital. Its grandeur and elegance were beautifully captured in illustrations for Jules Verne's timeless masterpiece, "A Journey to the Centre of the Earth. " These vivid lithographs depicted an extraordinary adventure where imagination floated freely alongside this remarkable airship. Not limited to London alone, floating took on various forms across different landscapes. In Cologne, an unexpected Bacchic revelry unfolded amidst a vibrant port scene - a lively celebration that seemed to defy gravity itself. Meanwhile, Viking funeral rites showcased a poignant moment when flames carried departed souls into eternity as they gently floated away. Even budding paratroopers found their place among these captivating scenes. Their colorful lithographs portrayed fearless individuals defying gravity and embracing freedom as they embarked on thrilling airborne journeys. It was a testament to human ingenuity and courage as they gracefully floated towards new horizons. Amidst all these wondrous moments, one engraving stood out - The Royal Albert Bridge - an architectural marvel connecting lands while seemingly suspended in mid-air. This bridge symbolized mankind's ability to conquer nature's obstacles and create pathways where none existed before; a true testament to our capacity for innovation and progress. Lastly, we find ourselves immersed in Perseus' mythological tale where he valiantly rescued his mother from perilous waters using divine aid. Together they floated away from danger towards safety – reminding us that even in times of adversity or uncertainty, there is always hope guiding us towards brighter shores.
