Description | Periodical illustration shows Felix Nadar's balloon, "Le Geant" over a rural area in its second and final flight in 1863. High winds force the balloon to the ground, dragging the basket dangerously close to an approaching train; two horses and a flock of sheep scatter to get out of the way. |
