EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the thrilling world of 19th century ballooning with this print commemorating Charles Green's daring ascent in his iconic Nassau Balloon. The image, dated October 6th, 1840, captures the moment of takeoff from Ben Jonson's Fields in Stepney, London. Green, an accomplished aeronaut, had gathered a large crowd of curious onlookers, including employees and shareholders of the gas company, to witness this historic event. The Nassau Balloon, a marvel of engineering for the time, was a sight to behold. Its vibrant colors and intricate design were a testament to the ingenuity and excitement of the age. Green, dressed in his full aeronautical regalia, stands confidently in the basket, ready to embark on his journey into the sky. The print, with its rich details and vivid colors, transports us back to a time when the impossible seemed possible, and the skies were a new frontier for exploration. This image is a must-have for any collection of aviation history or for those who appreciate the beauty and adventure of ballooning. Join Charles Green as he ascends into the heavens, leaving the world below and the bustling city of London behind, and experience the thrill of flight as it was in the 19th century.
