Engraving Flight Victorian


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the era of Victorian ingenuity and imagination. The image showcases an extraordinary invention known as Lanas Aeronautic Machine, designed by Francesco Lana de Terzi in 1670. Hand-coloured with meticulous attention to detail, this engraving depicts a small flying boat suspended gracefully in mid-air by four dainty gas balloons. The sheer audacity of Lana's creation is awe-inspiring. In an age when flight was nothing more than a distant dream for most, he dared to envision a future where humans could conquer the skies. This remarkable contraption embodies the spirit of innovation that defined the Victorian era. As we gaze upon this historic marvel, we are transported to a world where science fiction meets reality. The delicate intricacy of the engravings invites us to imagine what it would have been like witnessing such a spectacle firsthand. Preserved within the Cecil Victor Shadbolt collection of lantern slides dating from 1882-1892, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era marked by boundless curiosity and unyielding determination. It serves as a testament to human ambition and reminds us that even centuries ago, individuals were pushing boundaries and challenging conventional wisdom. Through this enchanting image from Historic England Archive, we are reminded that dreams can take flight if one possesses enough courage and vision.
