This is an autochrome color photo, taken at the Paris Air Show on the 30th of September, 1909, only six years after the successful flight of the Wright Brothers. It has been cleaned up, but all the color is original to the photograph.

Restoration done by Babelcolour.

Interior shot of a building with tall stone arches and an enormous glass dome supported by wrought iron structures. Inside, colorful hot air balloons float between giant streamers, as early airplanes are displayed on the floor. People in dark suits can be seen mingling on the show floor, most of them blurred by the very long exposure.
