Failed air travel of A. Hopman (plate II), 1804, Daniël Veelwaard (I) (possibly), 1804 - 1805 Canvas Print
Chaos in the notary's office where Abraham Hopman and Louis Samuel Loude have their will drawn up. Their wives pull their hair out of their heads, children crying on the floor. In the background the unsuccessful attempts to fill the hot air balloon with hot air on the Overtoom in Amsterdam on July 5, 1804. On the walls are plates of previous failed flights of hot air balloons. On the ceiling hangs a vessel equipped with cannon, rudder, flags and a barometer. Hopman and Loude made attempts on July 5 and 6, 1804, to make a journey in a hot air balloon called 'Lust for Research'. Eventually, the hot air balloon was raised without passengers.
