EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back in time to the Reims Aviation week in early 20th century Europe. The image captures a remarkable sight - one of Robert Esnault-Pelterie's innovative steel-framed streamlined REP monoplanes being towed by a majestic horse towards the starting line. The juxtaposition of nature and technology is striking as the graceful animal effortlessly pulls the propeller-driven aircraft across the airfield. It is a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to harness natural forces for transportation. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as spectators gather around, eagerly awaiting the start of an exhilarating air race. A group of determined men can be seen nearby, ready to embark on this daring competition that pushes the boundaries of aviation. This archival print not only showcases an important moment in aviation history but also highlights the harmonious relationship between man, machine, and animal. It serves as a reminder that progress often relies on collaboration and respect for both nature and innovation. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, this print would make a stunning addition to any art collection or decor scheme.
