EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in aviation history - Otto Lilienthal in flight on a hill near Ruthenow/Neustadt, Germany in 1894. Known as the "Father of Flight," Lilienthal was one of the pioneering birdmen who dared to defy gravity and soar through the skies like birds.
In this image, we see Lilienthal confidently gliding through the air with his homemade glider, showcasing his incredible skill and determination. The backdrop of the German countryside adds to the historical significance of this moment, as it was here that Lilienthal made some of his most groundbreaking flights.
The black and white tones give this photograph a timeless quality, transporting us back to a time when aviation was still in its infancy. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then, thanks to visionaries like Otto Lilienthal who paved the way for modern air travel.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library is not just a piece of art but also a window into our past, reminding us of the courage and innovation that has shaped our world today. It is truly an inspiring glimpse into history that will continue to captivate viewers for years to come.
