EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the impressive Vickers Matilda I Infantry Tank reproduction T3447 in action at the 2006 Larkhill Royal Artillery open day. This tank, reconstructed using an original hull that had been used as an anti-tank target, showcases the dedication and craftsmanship of those who brought it back to life. The attention to detail is evident in how all but one of the many holes were filled and modern transmission components were fitted to create a striking look-alike Matilda I.
As this historic tank maneuvers on the Larkhill racecourse/exhibition ground, it serves as a reminder of the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought in similar vehicles during times of conflict. The sheer power and presence of this machine are palpable through the image, transporting viewers back to a time when these tanks played a crucial role on the battlefield.
The Peter Butt Aviation Collection has captured not just a piece of military history, but also a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. This print is more than just a snapshot; it is a window into the past that allows us to appreciate both the technological advancements made over time and the courage displayed by those who operated such machinery.
