This engraving, titled "Balloon ascent at Brighton" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment of awe-inspiring adventure. The scene unfolds on the picturesque seafront of Brighton, East Sussex. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn to the magnificent hot air balloon gracefully ascending into the sky. The bustling atmosphere is palpable as people gather along the beach to witness this extraordinary spectacle. Boats dotting the shoreline add an extra layer of excitement to the scene, with a tugboat standing by in case any assistance is needed during takeoff. The image beautifully captures both human fascination and technological progress. Transportation has always been a symbol of human ingenuity and exploration, and this artwork perfectly encapsulates that spirit. It reminds us of how far we have come in terms of passenger transportation since those early days when hot air balloons were one of our most daring means of travel. Published in Illustrated London News on August 26th, 1843, this historical piece holds great significance not only for its artistic value but also for its documentation of an era marked by curiosity and ambition. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our modern advancements, there is still something magical about witnessing humanity's quest for new heights – quite literally in this case. As we admire this enchanting engraving from Bridgeman Images' collection curated by Valerie Jackson Harris, it invites us to reflect on our own aspirations and dreams while appreciating how far we have
