HOME AT DUSK GICLÉE CANVAS PROOF

It’s winter 1944 and the snow has brought a special quiet to the English countryside in the late evening twilight. The war seems a world away until the tranquillity is shattered by the unmistakable roar of Merlin engines, bringing about a harsh reminder of the realities of war-torn Europe. As dusk gathers and just feet above the gently waving reeds of the East Anglian fens, P-51 Mustangs sprint for home bearing the scars of the day’s battle; soon the tensions of aerial combat will be forgotten for a few hours, melting into an evening of camaraderie. Tomorrow will be a new day.

Robert Taylor’s classic Masterwork depicts this life of extremes lived to the full by a special breed of men who flew this iconic fighter as the Allies pushed for victory in Europe during the final stages of WWII. Tough, supremely confident, determined, and gloriously brave; it was an era that belonged to them and an era that is immortalized by the spell-binding artistry of the world’s leading military and aviation artist.

This heart-warming piece, originally published in 1992 as a veteran signed limited edition print, sold out quickly after its release. However, we are delighted that, thanks to the introduction of high-definition technology, this classic image is now available as the latest in the hugely popular series of artist signed GICLÉE STUDIO PROOFS on canvas.
