Capturing the Golden Age of Aviation, this stunning print showcases an Imperial Airways Armstrong Whitworth aircraft of the Argosy class soaring through the skies. Taken on September 18th, 1936, this aerial view transports us back to a time when air travel was truly a marvel. The majestic biplane stands as a testament to engineering prowess, with its three engines propelling it effortlessly above the cityscape below. The iconic City of Glasgow proudly adorns its fuselage, representing the connection between nations during this era of exploration and discovery. Imperial Airways was at the forefront of aviation innovation in Europe during the 1930s.
