ACTION THIS DAY
Flown by many crews, Halifax LV907 'Friday 13th' was typical of the four-engined heavy bombers that formed the backbone of RAF Bomber Command, and served as a symbol to the enduring bravery of the men who flew the 'heavies' in action.
|
ARCTIC HUNTERS
High in the Arctic Circle a bitter war of attrition was fought in freezing, unforgiving conditions, the desperate conflict played out against a majestic, awe-inspiring backdrop of beautiful ice-clad mountains.

BOMBING UP TOMMY
Richard Taylor's outstanding painting depicts the scene just a few hours before departure, on the afternoon of 16 May 1943 at RAF Scampton as the hardworking ground crews of 617 Squadron ready their Lancasters in preparation for the night's raid.
|
BREACHING THE DAMS - THE MEN WHO MADE IT POSSIBLE
Limited to only NINETEEN copies to represent the nineteen Lancaster crews who took part in the Dambuster raid, all three drawings have been faithfully reproduced as high quality giclée fine art prints, personally signed by the artist and hand numbered. To create a historic collector's piece and adding great authenticity, all three are mounted in a single composition to include the ORIGINAL autographs of the two famous engineers PLUS a further two original signatures of veterans who piloted Lancasters on that fateful night.

CAPTAIN EDDIE
In an exquisite tribute to America's World War I Ace of Aces, Richard Taylor has created yet another inspirational drawing to add to his growing list of highly-collectible masterworks. Deservedly respected for his skilful technique of incorporating pencil and colourwash highlights, Richard furthers his repertoire of World War I subjects with Captain Eddie, a superb depiction of Rickenbacker alongside the Spad XIII fighters of his 94th 'Hat-in-the-Ring' Aero Squadron on the Western Front in 1918.
