THE WORK HORSE
In his breath-taking tribute to the Lancasters of Bomber Command and the crews who flew them, Anthony Saunders has chosen one of the 35 'ton-up' Lancasters to take centre stage in his atmospheric piece The Work Horse. Using his considerable talent Anthony magically conjures up a glorious winter landscape just as it must have been on that cold, crisp, snow-clad morning of 5 January 1945 when Lancaster LM227 UL-I - call sign 'I-Item' of 576 Squadron once again made it safely home. Battle-scarred and with her paintwork showing the signs of a long, hard winter 'I-Item' descends gradually towards RAF Fiskerton. Now, with gear down on final approach, the weary pilot must concentrate hard as he steadies the bomber for touchdown. Behind them the rest of the squadron, some probably damaged with wounded on board, follow them home.

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'.

SALUTE TO THE BRAVE
Luftwaffe Ace Franz Stigler declines to destroy a seemingly defenceless and battered B-17 from the 379th Bomb Group as it limps home following a raid on Bremen, 20 December 1943. Having assessed the critical state of the Fortress flown by 2nd Lt Charlie Brown, and glimpsed some of the badly wounded men through gaping holes in the fuselage, Stigler decides to escort the bomber to the North Sea coast on a heading for England. In a final act of chivalry, the German pilot looked across at his American counterpart and raised a gloved hand in salute before swinging his aircraft away.

STRAGGLER AT DAWN
Richard Taylor's inspired piece sees the straggler with just a few more miles to go before the pilot gets his Lancaster safely back on the ground and, after her ground crew have worked their magic, the bomber will soon be in the air again, ready to fight another day. Adding great provenance to this poignant and atmospheric release, the prints are personally autographed by distinguished World War Two veterans who flew with RAF Bomber Command, creating a unique and exclusive collector's piece.

THE GREAT PATRIOTIC WAR
Despite stiff and bitter resistance from
the retreating German army, Soviet forces
continue their dogged advance westwards
towards Berlin.
Richard's dramatic edition recalls the
fierce battles that took part along the
Eastern Front during WWII. Completed in
his trademark technique using a mixture of
graphite with colour highlights on
antique-style buff paper, this stunning
piece acts as a tribute to all those who
served in this decisive confrontation.

MERLIN MAGIC

ARNHEM AIRBORNE ASSAULT
Simon's graphic portrayal depicts a scene on the first day of Operation Market Garden as, early in the afternoon, glider borne infantry from the British 1st Air Landing Brigade successfully secure 'DZ-X', the drop-zone on Renkum Heath several miles to the west of Arnhem. Overhead paratroopers from the 1st Parachute Brigade begin their drop from USAAF C-47s.
