Jean-Charles Adolphe Alphand was a French engineer of the Corps of Bridges and Roads. As a close associate of Baron Haussmann and later as Director of Public Works at Paris City Hall from 1871, he was instrumental in the large scale renovation of Paris in the second half of the 19th century. In 1889, Alphand was elevated to the rank of Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor. In 1891, shortly before his death, he succeeded Haussmann as a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts.<br /> The Petit Palais (Small Palace) is an art museum in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, France. Built for the 1900 Exposition Universelle (&quot;Universal Exhibition&quot;), it now houses the City of Paris Museum of Fine Arts (Musée des beaux-arts de la Ville de Paris). The Petit Palais is located across the street from the Grand Palais on the former Avenue Nicolas II, today Avenue Winston-Churchill. The other façades of the building face the Seine and Avenue des Champs-Élysées. The Petit Palais is one of fourteen museums of the City of Paris that have been incorporated since 1 January 2013 in the public corporation Paris Musées. It has been listed since 1975 as a monument historique (Historic Monument) by the Ministry of Culture. <br /> Additional information on the Petit Palais may be found at <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petit_Palais" rel="noreferrer nofollow"> Wikipedia</a>.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/klauseuteneuer/">klauseuteneuer</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/klauseuteneuer/55212216838/" title="Paris"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55212216838_303199b4c3_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Paris" /></a></p> <p>„Der Mensch ist kein Vogel / Es wird nie ein Mensch fliegen“.<br /> <br /> Doch, wird er. Etwa mit dieser Konstruktion des französischen Luftfahrtpioniers Clément Ader. Sein im Pariser Musée des Arts et Métiers gezeigtes Modell 3 startete am 14. Oktober 1897 zu einem Flug.<br /> <br /> Der Flug war motorgetrieben, das Fluggerät verfügte über eine Dampfmaschine. Die Flugstrecke betrug den Angaben offizieller Beobachter zufolge rund 300 Meter, die Flughöhe etwa 20 Zentimeter.<br /> <br /> Das französische Militär, das das die Entwicklung begleitete, war nicht überzeugt und stellte die Förderung ein. Dennoch - die Konstruktion war ein Meilenstein. Die Erwartung des Militärs, dass dies in einer Sackgasse enden würde, sollte sich als falsch erweisen.<br /> <br /> Clément Ader führte für seine Konstruktion das Wort „Avion“ („Flugzeug“) in die französische Sprache ein. Er leitete das Wort wohl vom Lateinischen „Avis“ („Vogel“) ab.<br /> <br /> „Vogel“ hin oder her - Clément Ader orientierte sich bei seinem Entwurf nicht an Vögeln, sondern an Fledermäusen. Und zwar sehr genau.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55210918411/" title="20250518_133622"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210918411_b2d6a337fc_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250518_133622" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211164974/" title="20250518_123459(0)"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211164974_5e5601c54e_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250518_123459(0)" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211068838/" title="20250516_210409"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211068838_ef4fd2ec23_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250516_210409" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55210924331/" title="20250520_122609"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210924331_89e5bb2588_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250520_122609" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55210917306/" title="20250519_222058"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210917306_96c8fd05d5_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250519_222058" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55210919231/" title="20250516_130430"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210919231_3f281bbde8_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250516_130430" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211072508/" title="20250519_190339"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211072508_b2ca2efb5c_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="20250519_190339" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55210921131/" title="20250518_130427"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210921131_e4013deff2_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="20250518_130427" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55210019862/" title="20250519_214857"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210019862_e9221c83f5_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250519_214857" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/valery_bruce/">MaxMedia Photo &amp; Video Studios New York</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/valery_bruce/55210002437/" title="Paris April 2026 - Phase One IQ260 Schneider 80mm BR"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55210002437_4b68b53033_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Paris April 2026 - Phase One IQ260 Schneider 80mm BR" /></a></p> <p>@valeryshpakphotography - New York wedding photographer</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211141019/" title="PXL_20250513_121455822"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211141019_29321dba81_m.jpg" width="240" height="181" alt="PXL_20250513_121455822" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211138324/" title="20250514_131807"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211138324_ee16e39243_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250514_131807" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211140594/" title="20250513_114456"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211140594_59bce3801e_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="20250513_114456" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/izrailit/">izrailit</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/izrailit/55211294930/" title="PXL_20250514_144544276"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55211294930_d417ab47e4_m.jpg" width="181" height="240" alt="PXL_20250514_144544276" /></a></p>
