EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph, taken in 1926, captures the daring spirit of French aviator Lieutenant Collot as he skillfully pilots his biplane beneath the iconic Tour Eiffel. The historic moment represents a significant achievement in aviation history, with Collot becoming one of the first to fly so close to the iconic Parisian landmark. However, as the crowd watches in awe, tragedy strikes. Unseen by Collot, a cable from the tower snags the wing of his plane, sending it spiraling out of control. In a heartbreaking moment, the aviator is unable to recover, and he crashes fatally, leaving the onlookers stunned and mourning the loss of a brave pioneer. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the risks and rewards of human ambition, and the enduring allure of the City of Light."
