"Beautiful Beaufighter" Canvas
This painting is inspired by the uplifting tale of Flt. Lt. Gatward and his navigator Sgt. Gilbert Fern on June 12, 1942. France had been getting used to Nazi occupation after practically being defeated with only small splinter cells of spy networks working against Germany. Hope was nearly lost until Gatward and Fern made a bold attempt to show solidarity and raise moral of the French people by returning a French flag in a Bristol Beaufighter draping it beautifully over the corner of the Arc de Triomphe
Giclée print on a canvas that has a hand finished 19mm wooden frame of European knotless pine. Each canvas frame is milled with a curved profile; minimizing contact with the face of the canvas; preventing unsightly impression marks and surface cracking.
