EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the moment when the first automobile was granted permission to navigate the bustling streets of Paris, marking a pivotal turning point in the emergence of the motoring age. The vehicle in question is Leon Serpollet's Voiture Miracle, a groundbreaking invention that captured the imagination of the public and the authorities alike. Dated to April 1891, this image shows the automobile being inspected by French police officers before being given the green light to join the city's transportation landscape. Leon Serpollet, a visionary inventor and engineer, had spent years perfecting his creation, which boasted an impressive top speed of 20 kilometers per hour. The Voiture Miracle, meaning "miracle car," was named for its seemingly magical ability to move without the aid of horses or animals. Its engine, powered by a mixture of coal and alcohol, produced a mere 1.5 horsepower, but it was enough to leave an indelible mark on history. This photograph is a testament to the courage and determination of Serpollet and his peers, who dared to challenge the status quo and revolutionize the way people traveled. The Voiture Miracle's authorization to drive in public marked the beginning of a new era in transportation, paving the way for the widespread adoption of automobiles and the eventual demise of horse-drawn carriages. This iconic image serves as a reminder of the transformative power of innovation and the indomitable human spirit.
