EDITORS COMMENTS
Guynemer - Le retour de l AS: A Topographical and Aeronautical Historical Print Commemorating the Heroic Return of René Fonck's Aircraft, "AS," to the Pantheon on All Saints' Day, 1917 This evocative print, titled "Guynemer - Le retour de l AS," captures a significant moment in the history of World War I aviation and French military heroism. The image depicts the iconic aircraft "AS," flown by the renowned French ace, René Fonck, as it returns to the Pantheon in Paris on All Saints' Day, November 1, 1917. René Fonck, born in 1894, was a French fighter pilot who achieved remarkable success during World War I, with a total of 75 confirmed victories, making him the second-highest scoring ace of the war. His exceptional skills and bravery earned him numerous accolades, including the Legion of Honor and the Croix de Guerre. The print, created by Maurice Busset (1879-1936), masterfully combines topographical and aeronautical elements to capture the essence of this historic moment. The Pantheon, a grand mausoleum in Paris, serves as the backdrop for the returning aircraft, while the intricate details of the "AS" are rendered with precision and accuracy. The image also includes the date and the inscription "Jour de la Toussaint," further emphasizing the significance of the event. Maurice Busset, a prolific artist and illustrator, was known for his historical and topographical works. His expertise in capturing the intricacies of both architectural and aeronautical subjects is evident in this stunning print. The image not only serves as a testament to the heroism and achievements of René Fonck but also as a visual record of a pivotal moment in the history of aviation and military history.
