about this piece
Robert Taylor's New Volume of Air Combat Paintings featuring an exclusive limited edition print, Normandy Nemesis.

When Johnnie Johnson led the Mk IX Spitfires of his 144 Canadian Wing to temporary airstrip B.3 near the village of St Croix sur Mer, a few miles inland from the Normandy beach head, they were making history. As they landed on the hastily constructed Summerfield mesh tracking runway on D-Day plus 9, they became the first Allied air force unit to be based in former occupied Europe, and the first to operate in France after D-Day. Mk IX Spitfires of 443 Squadron RCAF, based at St Croix sur Mer tangle with a group of Fw190s whom they had encountered on a fighter sweep near Alencon, in southern Normandy on 23 June 1944. During the melee that followed, their Squadron Leader, Wally McLeod, quickly destroyed two Fw190s, whilst another Fw190 was badly damaged.

Each print is accompanied by a special edition copy of the Vol VI book with the RAF & Commonwealth cover, numbered and personally signed by Robert Taylor and presented in a gold embossed slip case. All of the prints of Normandy Nemesis 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 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.
