A gentle satire on the perils of early, and largely unregulated, aviation, as a fashionable couple of newlyweds come a-cropper, probably through inexperience, as a similar bi-plane soars effortlessly overhead. Perched perilously in a tree top, the husband gently lowers his wife, her enormous hat boxes, and a small dog, into the arms of a passing coachman, as the passengers of his horse-drawn carriage look on in bewilderment.

Hand-coloured pochoir print, 46.5 x 91.5 cm., laid on board and mounted. Slight browning to upper left corner.
