Houris and Robert Duhamel had constructed the Tellier monoplane with which Dubonnet had flown from Juvisy to La Ferté Saint Aubin, having thus received the Prix de « La Nature ». At the request of the Tellier construction sites, a bronze plaque was completed by the sculpteur L. Cariat on which one can see Dubonnet's profile regarding an airplane flying over Paris, with the inscription "La société des chantiers Tellier à Émile Dubonnet Traversée de Paris. Juvisy-Orléans Avril 1910", and the signature "L. Cariat". [1]
