THE ASSAULT ON BENOUVILLE BRIDGE
Faithfully reproduced as a fine art limited edition print and restricted to just FIFTY copies worldwide, each has been personally signed by artist Richard Taylor before being hand numbered. Adding great historical significance, every print is issued mounted to full conservation standards to include museum quality reproduction shoulder titles of both the Glider Pilot Regiment and the Ox & Bucks Light Infantry, PLUS the original pencil autographs of Second World War veterans who took part in the operation, representing both units.

THE EAGLES RETURN
In his memorable piece The Eagles Return, Richard Taylor uses spell-binding artistry to convey a heart-warming scene in tribute to those tough, determined and supremely brave aviators. It seems fitting that he's chosen to depict Ace pilot 'Bud' Anderson in his P-51 'Old Crow' in company with colleagues from the 363rd Fighter Squadron as they head back to Leiston after a gruelling escort mission over occupied Europe for the 357th Fighter Group - one of the most successful fighter units in the Eighth Air Force.

THE FLYING CIRCUS
In his stunning graphite work Richard Taylor brilliantly recreates a scene at an airfield in Flanders shortly before the German Spring Offensive of 1918. Flying his distinctive, highly-recognisable red-painted Fokker Dr.1 tri-plane, Richthofen leads his men away from their makeshift base towards the British lines. As they prowl the skies above the Front an encounter with the RFC will surely happen and the pilots of the 'Flying Circus' will once again be wheeling and turning in yet another death-defying cauldron of one-on-one, close-combat dog-fights.

THE FRONT - DOUBLE REMARQUE
Regarded as one of the most gifted exponents of pencil work in the industry, Richard Taylor will hand-craft an original drawing in the lower margin of each print to create a unique collectors piece.
|
THE GREAT ESCAPE
Richard Taylor's masterful new piece captures the scene as POWs escape into the cool night air and realize, to their dawning horror, that their planned exit has fallen short of the woods.

THE GREAT ESCAPE - Matted Collector's Piece
Richard's atmospheric piece shows the moment POWs escape into the cool night air and realise that their planned exit has fallen short of the woods; they will have to crawl to the cover of the trees under the noses of the patrolling sentries.

|
THE GREAT PATRIOTIC WAR
Despite stiff and bitter resistance from
the retreating German army, Soviet forces
continue their dogged advance westwards
towards Berlin.
Richard's dramatic edition recalls the
fierce battles that took part along the
Eastern Front during WWII. Completed in
his trademark technique using a mixture of
graphite with colour highlights on
antique-style buff paper, this stunning
piece acts as a tribute to all those who
served in this decisive confrontation.
