FINAL ROSTER
Anthony Saunders brings to life the tense few hours before departure in his dramatic painting 'Final Roster'.

HELLFIRE CORNER
Anthony Saunders, already highly regarded for his paintings of the First World War, has once again excelled with this piece Hellfire Corner, a scene that relives a moment at an exposed section of road linking the city of Ypres to the Front. Well within sight and range of the enemy's guns it was nicknamed 'Hellfire Corner', quickly living up to a reputation as 'the most dangerous corner on Earth'.
|
HURRICANE HERO
In tribute to all the heroic Hurricane pilots who flew and fought in the Battle of Britain, Anthony's painting has been faithfully reproduced as a fine art limited edition and printed onto borders that were personally signed many years ago. This means every copy in the edition carries the original and authentic autograph of the famous Ace depicted in the scene, creating a remarkable collector's piece to be cherished for future generations.

KING OF THE AIR
Lancaster JB663 King of the Air was one of those, symbolically chosen by Anthony Saunders as the subject for his stunning piece to accompany his new book. This resilient aircraft survived the war having flown 111 operations, and is seen here on the morning of 29 July 1944 as Flight Sergeant S H Jones of 106 Squadron brings her safely home to RAF Metheringham after a night-time mission to Stuttgart. With prints signed by two of the most highly-distinguished veterans ever to have served in Lancasters, including 'Johnny Johnson' who also wrote the foreword, this new release rightly earns its place amongst the memorable editions published by the Military Gallery.
