The Story Behind the Print

Orville and Wilbur Wright's U.S. Patent 821,393, granted May 22, 1906, documents their Flying-Machine and its system of aerodynamic control. Filed in 1903, the patent centers on controlling the machine through coordinated changes to the wing surfaces rather than simply producing lift.

The sheet is headed O. & W. Wright, Flying Machine, and marked sheet 1 of 3. Fig. 1 is a single large view of the machine, a long lattice of struts and crossed wires, with small vertical surfaces and their supports at one side and dashed lines showing a changed position of the wing at the other. Numerals label the parts, and both inventors sign.

Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks.

Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.

About the Frame

Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with clear acrylic glazing, dry-mounted artwork, a kraft paper dust cover, and hanging wire. Each piece arrives ready to hang. No mat. Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.

The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.
