Description WE SHALL NOT FORGET – RELEASED FOR REMEMBRANCE DAY AND VETERANS DAY With the Battle of Britain reaching its climax, Mk.Ia Spitfires from 92 Squadron return to their new base at Biggin Hill in early September 1940. As if in tribute to fallen comrades, a bright swathe of second-flowering corn poppies greet their thunderous arrival. This superb cameo painting by Richard Taylor serves as a tribute to all those who fought for the Allied forces during WWII. THE SIGNATURES The Battle of Britain changed the course of the war in Europe and although the number of veterans who fought has sadly dwindled, it is a great honour that, along with the artist Richard Taylor, each print has been personally signed by three veterans who served during this crucial period: Flying Officer KEN WILKINSON Spitfire Pilot with 616 and 619 Sqns Flight Lieutenant TERRY CLARK DFM AE WOp/AG on Blenheims with 219 Sqn / 6 victories Leading Aircraftman BILL JONATHAN Ground Crew with 32 Sqn on Hurricanes 250 Signed & numbered – sold out 25 Artist Proofs – sold out Overall Print Size: 19¼” wide x 16¼” high Image Size: 14¼” wide x 9¾” high THE REMARQUE EDITIONS 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.
