EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour painting depicts the moment of triumph for the Royal Air Force during the turbulent days of wartime aviation. The scene unfolds as a determined RAF pilot, with unyielding focus, zeroes in on his target - a damaged Heinkel 111K bomber, its once menacing form now vulnerable and on the brink of destruction. The German aircraft, a common sight in the skies during World War II, is shown with its wings riddled with bullet holes and smoke billowing from its engines. The RAF flight plane, adorned with the distinctive roundels and markings of the British military, looms in the background, ready to deliver the final blow. The artist, A. F. D. Bannister, masterfully captures the intensity and drama of the air battle, with the contrasting colours of the planes and the ominous clouds in the sky adding to the overall sense of excitement and danger. This painting is a poignant reminder of the courage and skill of the pilots who fought bravely in the skies during wartime, and the crucial role that aviation played in shaping the course of history.
