Description

INSIDE GREETING: Congratulations graduate!

Tell the graduate in your life that their dreams are unlimited with this beautiful hot air balloon image! Despite its seemingly straightforward appearance, this artwork has a fascinating origin story: it commemorates a significant moment in the history of flight when Jules Duruof successfully ascended over Paris on June 6, 1874! Two of the three figures depicted are believed to be Duruof and his wife. The original poster featured the balloon in the tricolors of the French flag, marking the beginning of the hot air balloon fad in popular culture! See our entire Encourage Graduates Collection!
