EAGLES OUT OF THE SUN - Original Pencil Drawing
by Robert Taylor
An exceptional opportunity to acquire an original concept drawing from Robert Taylor's studio, created during the development of his celebrated Eagles Out of the Sun composition.
Rendered in pencil, the drawing captures Messerschmitt Bf 109s of the Luftwaffe pressing home an attack against an American B-17 formation, with the lead fighter breaking from the cloud tops as the engagement unfolds below.A fascinating insight into Robert Taylor's working process, this original drawing reveals how the composition, aircraft and dramatic aerial action were developed before becoming the finished painting and limited edition print. The completed work pays tribute to the Luftwaffe fighter aces who flew the legendary Bf 109 in combat during the Second World War.
