Description
With soft evening sunlight radiant behind them, Hauptmann Wolfgang Ewald, Gruppenkommandeur of 1./JG52, leads a schwarm of Bf109s back to their base near Calais after another hectic encounter with pilots of RAF Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain, September 1940.
This evocative new painting from one of the most exciting artists in the industry pays a fitting tribute to the Luftwaffe pilots that fought during this crucial period in history and with the edition carrying increasingly rare signatures this is likely to become a highly sought after collectors piece:
