EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph print titled "Attack" from John Hamilton's Flying Memories series, created in 1934, takes us back to the thrilling era of aviation in the early 20th century. This dynamic illustration by Stanley Orton Bradshaw showcases a dramatic aerial battle scene featuring the Gloucester Gamecocks of the Auxiliary Air Force. In this action-packed image, we witness an intense dogfight between biplanes as they engage in combat exercises. The Hawker Horsley planes soar through the sky with precision and speed, while firing their weapons at an unseen enemy below. The artist's skillful sketching technique brings these aircrafts to life, capturing every detail of their structure and movement. As we delve into this artwork, we are transported to a time when flight was still a relatively new concept and pilots were true pioneers. The Royal Air Force insignia proudly displayed on these planes reminds us of their crucial role in defending nations during times of conflict. This engraving not only celebrates the bravery and skill of those who served in the RAF but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and progress. It is a reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, there is beauty to be found in our pursuit of innovation. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection invites us to reflect on our shared history and appreciate the courage it took for aviators like those depicted here to take flight into unknown territories.
