EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the first ever aerial journey undertaken by living creatures. In 1783, a Montgolfier hot air balloon took flight from Versailles to Vaucresson, carrying a sheep, a cock, and a hen as its brave passengers. This incredible feat marked the beginning of mankind's exploration of the skies and paved the way for future advancements in aviation.
The image depicts the unmanned balloon soaring gracefully through the air, with its unusual cargo suspended beneath it. The sheep, cock, and hen appear calm and curious as they experience the sensation of flight for the very first time. Their presence on board serves as a reminder of humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and discovery.
As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are transported back to that fateful day in September 1783 when dreams became reality and boundaries were pushed beyond imagination. The Montgolfier brothers' invention revolutionized transportation and sparked a new era of innovation that continues to inspire us today.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured this iconic moment in time, allowing us to marvel at the courage and ingenuity of those who dared to defy gravity and reach for the stars.
