EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait graced the cover of The Tatler magazine in 1917, featuring the renowned French military aviator, Captain Georges-Marie Guynemer. Born in 1894, Guynemer rose to prominence during World War I as one of the most successful fighter pilots of the time, credited with the destruction of an impressive 53 enemy planes. His bravery and skill in the cockpit earned him the nickname "The Sphinx of the Skies." Despite his numerous victories, Guynemer was not invincible. He was shot down a total of seven times but always managed to escape unharmed. However, on 11 September 1917, during a dogfight over the Eastern Front, Guynemer went missing in action. His fate remains uncertain, and he is believed to have been either killed in action or captured by the enemy. This image captures the essence of Guynemer's heroic persona, with his intense gaze and determined expression. The backdrop of the war-torn skies and the insignia of the French Air Force on his chest further emphasize his status as an ace pilot and a national hero. The portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the airmen who fought in the skies during the First World War.
