LIMITED EDITION PRINT by Nicolas Trudgian
''This is the best Luftwaffe bomber painting I have ever seen...it captures the atmosphere exactly''
Hajo Herrmann K.C.O.S.In September 1940, the final phase of the Battle of Britain, the Luftwaffe turned its attention away from the RAF's airfields and made London its target. This fascinatingly detailed painting depicts a devastating raid which took place on September 15th when more than one hundred Heinkel 111 and Dornier bombers swarmed over the docklands and the East End. Believing the RAF to be down to their last 50 fighters, the Luftwaffe had not expected much opposition, and so were greatly surprised to be met by no fewer than 28 squadrons of Hurricanes and Spitfires. One He111 of KG53 is seen here having been hit, before struggling back to France. Many others were not so fortunate and, by the end of the day, the German losses were so great that Hitler postponed the invasion of Britain indefinitely.
'Target London' brings together a unique combination of up to FOURTEEN Luftwaffe bomber and fighter pilot signatures, all Knights Cross winners, including three editions considered to be the most significant collection of Luftwaffe bomber signatures ever to adorn a fine art print.
