EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Richardson Tandem Biplane Hydroplane on Potomac, April, 1916," showcases an early aviation milestone in American history. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, captures the moment of takeoff for this innovative tandem biplane hydroplane on the serene waters of the Potomac River. At the controls, with focused determination, is George A. Gray. Flanking him on either side are the proud builders of this engineering marvel, the Richardson Brothers. Their uncle, who conceived the idea, stands nearby, watching with a sense of pride and anticipation. The year is 1916, on the cusp of the First World War, and the world is on the brink of a new era in transportation. The men are dressed in the fashion of the time, with bowler hats perched atop their heads, adding an element of classic charm to the scene. The biplane, a testament to human ingenuity and innovation, is a sight to behold. Its sleek design, with the tandem wings and hydroplane hull, is a pioneering achievement in aviation. This photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a treasure trove of history. It encapsulates the spirit of adventure, the thrill of discovery, and the relentless pursuit of progress that characterized the early days of aviation. A must-see for aviation enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with a love for the past, this image is a reminder of the remarkable achievements of the past and the limitless possibilities of the future.
