VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image features a commemorative emblem celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Royal Air Force (RAF). At the top, there is a crown symbolizing royal authority and connection. Below it, an eagle with outstretched wings represents strength and vigilance, which are key qualities for an air force. The eagle is superimposed on a circular background with "Per Ardua Ad Astra" inscribed across it, which translates to "Through Adversity to the Stars, " signifying triumph through challenges. This motto is often associated with air forces. The years "1918 - 1943" are prominently displayed in large numerals at the center of the emblem, indicating the period from when RAF was founded until its 25th year. Encircling this central design is a laurel wreath—a classical symbol of victory and honor—suggesting recognition of achievements and service. At the bottom of this black-and-white image, text reads "25th anniversary of the R. A. F. " confirming that this artwork was created to mark this significant milestone for one of the oldest independent air forces in the world. Additionally, there's mention of 'Rotol Airscrews Ltd, ' suggesting that this company may have produced or commissioned this emblem as part of their celebration or acknowledgment for RAF's anniversary.
