"The City of Salzburg in the Year 2000" is a very peculiar painting that shows humanity's ambition to develop scientific advances that can improve everyone's life.
The painting was created in 1900 representing a future in which people fly using giant wings. At that time, the plane had not yet been invented, but man's desire to cross the skies while traveling was already present in society. The most interesting thing about this image is the artist's certainty in showing how we would be able to fly, even if it took a thousand years to happen. The image reaffirms the human being's intelligence and his capacity to innovate and build.
The artist does not imagine in 3 years later, in 1903 there were already people creating the first prototype aircraft and doing research to make them possible. Which means that the advance we dream of is often closer than we can imagine.
