about this piece
Robert Taylor's New Volume of Air Combat Paintings featuring an exclusive limited edition print, Where the Eagles Gathered.
On 5 March 1944 the B-24 bombers of the 448th Bomb Group took off from England, their mission - to destroy the Luftwaffe facilities at Limoges aerodrome in western France. But waiting for them were the Bf-109s of JG2, ready to rip into the attacking force at the first opportunity. Luckily for the bomber crews they had one of the finest fighter escorts in the Mighty Eighth, Don Blakeslee's 4th Fighter Group - 'The Eagles'. As a straggling B-24 comes under attack and its inner starboard engine starts to trail smoke, Steve Pisanos, one of the Fourth's most deadly Aces, and fellow P-51B pilots quickly arrive on the scene to break up the attack. The Liberator now has a chance to get home.
Each print is accompanied by a special edition copy of the Vol VI book with the USAAF cover, numbered and personally signed by Robert Taylor and presented in a gold embossed slip case. All of the prints of Where the Eagles Gathered are signed by two outstanding Fighter Pilots from this aerial conflict.
The Remarque Edition:
With just TEN copies issued with each of the special editions, Robert Taylor's magnificent pencil remarque will be completed on a separate folio sheet of paper which is inserted loosely within the book itself and can be framed and displayed as a separate item in its own right.
The Veterans Bookplate:
Specially placed in the front of each of the TEN remarque edition books will be a remarkable bookplate containing the original signatures of FIFTEEN of World War Two's most famous and distinguished aviators. Illustrious veterans whose names include Erich Hartmann, the highest scoring Ace in history; Hub Zemke and Don Blakeslee; and Victoria Cross holders Bill Reid and Norman Jackson to name but a few.
