Description

Here we have a total one off 'Eagles at Dawn' this is from the personal collection of Robert Taylor and is the final un-trimmed proof for the print run of Eagles at Dawn , Robert has written on the lower left of the print Final Proof. Robert has also written a description of why it was the final proof ' Eagles at Dawn ' Although pleased with the final proof it did not quite match-up with the soft lines of the original. This edition sold out extremely quickly in a very short time , down to Hartmann's signature no doubt. It has been adorned with a large stunning remarque to the lower right of the print...On Thursday, August 24th, 1944 a 22-year old Oberleutnant Erich Hatmann powered his Me109G fighter in a spectacular low pass over his squadron's airstrip in north-eastern Romania, wagging his wings to the cheering Luftwaffe personnel on the ground below. The young flaxen-haired pilot had just become the first fighter Ace in history to bring down 300 enemy aircraft in combat. In this dramatic rendition, the world's number one aviation artist captures a brilliantly colourful mid-winter scene during the final phase of war on the Eastern Front. Glinting in the sub-zero early morning sunlight as fresh sow begins to fall, and led by their Gruppenkommandeur Erich Hartmann, the Me109G fighters of I./JG53 scramble off the snow covered airstrip at Veszprem in Hungary, February 1945. They will intercept waves of Russian fighters and bombers in the skies above Czechoslovakia in a last ditch attempt to repel the impending invasion...This print remains one of most highly desired and collectable limited editions ever published...priced @ £2495.00 for Robert Taylors very own final proof of Eagles at Dawn adorned with a beautiful remarque.
