The example shown is a ‘Deluxe’ Remarque

Few painters have the necessary skill to successfully blend the machines of war into beautiful landscapes as Robert, and his breathtaking work Checkertails – Outbound Escort is a classic example of just why he’s considered the greatest ever aviation artist. Taking centre stage are P-51Ds from the 317th Fighter Squadron, 325th Fighter Group led by their CO, Major ‘Herky’ Green and his wingman First Lieutenant ‘Art’ Fiedler climbing in the crisp mountain air over the magnificent, still snow-capped mountains of the Alps en-route to support heavy bombers of the U.S. 15th Air Force in the summer of 1944.

Overall matted size approx: 41” wide x 27” high
Image size: 32 ½” wide x 15 ½” high

Painted by Robert in 2023 and faithfully reproduced as a fine art limited edition print, every copy has been signed by Robert and embossed with the logo of The Robert Taylor Trust, a body established to preserve Robert’s legacy and safeguard the future copyright of his work in years to come.
