1531747205Code sc UnknownDrawings in mixed technique, water-colour and pastel depicting a WWI aircraft, by Riccardo Cavigioli 1920s. Including frame cm 80x1.7x60.3 - inches 31.49x0.66x23.7.
Riccardo Cavigioli was born in Milan on 10th November 1895 and he died in Gavirate (VA) on 27th May 1975; he was much decorated during the First War World, and he was an aviation writer, draftsman and illustrator for important advertising campaigns; his water-colours were shown for the first time to in Turin Exhibition in 1928 and they are an important historical report. He contributed to aeronautical magazine and he published in 1934 the treatise “Austro-Hungarian aviation on Italian front in 1915-1918”, an important work for knowledge about history of Italian aviation.
The first real flight happened in 1903, when the Wright brothers made fly - and keep in the air for 12 seconds - a glider with a motor of 16 horsepower at Kill Devil Hill in North Carolina, USA. But the father of aviation, by the scientific community and aeronautics, is considered Alberto Santos-Dumont, who, during a flight on November 12, 1906, has made to take off a machine heavier than air without external help (the Wright brothers had instead used a sort of catapult to take off).
