The First Airplane in the Alps - Chavez Soars to New Heights at 2500 Meters
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This color lithograph, created by Achille Beltrame in 1910, captures a historic moment as aviator Jorge Chavez becomes the first person to fly an airplane in the majestic Alps. The image showcases the breathtaking beauty of the alpine landscape, with snow-capped mountains and deep valleys stretching as far as the eye can see. As Chavez's aircraft soars high above at an impressive altitude of 2500 meters, hikers below cheer and wave their hats in awe. The scene is filled with excitement and anticipation, as both French and Italian onlookers marvel at this incredible feat of aviation. Chavez himself, a Peruvian-French aviator known for his daring flights, appears confident and determined behind the controls of his plane. His achievement not only marks a significant milestone in aviation history but also symbolizes human triumph over nature's formidable obstacles. The illustration beautifully captures this pivotal moment from Courier Sunday magazine, showcasing Beltrame's skillful artistry. It transports us back to a time when airplanes were still considered marvels of technology and pioneers like Chavez pushed boundaries to explore new frontiers. This print serves as a reminder that dreams can become reality through courage, innovation, and perseverance. It immortalizes an extraordinary chapter in aviation history while celebrating the indomitable spirit of those who dare to defy gravity among nature's most awe-inspiring landscapes.
