Description
As the day breaks on the Russian Front and the sun begins to rise during the high summer of 1942, heavily armed Bf 110’s of 6/ZG1 prepare for a dawn strike against ground targets deep in Russian territory. Above them their Me109 escorts scan the skies for enemy intruders.
It is high summer, 1942. On the ground German summer offensive towards the Caucasus is now in full swing, and General Paulus with the 6th Army has begun the long advance that will eventually lead it to the gates of Stalingrad. The Luftwaffe is at full stretch, it too has a major part to play against the stiffening Russian resistance.
Now an established figure with aviation art collectors, Richard Tayor has once again used his inordinate skill to complete yet another masterful painting, a wonderfully atmospheric image that fuses the radiant beauty of nature with the perilous threat of war.
