Product Description
Clash of Eagles by Anthony Saunders
Overall Print Size: 26 1/2" x 19 1/2"
Edition size of 400
S/N by Artist and Two (2) Pilot Signatures
Released as a pair with A WELCOME RETURN, Anthony Saunders' new painting, CLASH OF EAGLES, features P-51 Mustangs of the 20th Fighter Group, flying out of Kings Cliffe to engage Me109’s from JG77 in a furiously contested dogfight. Below them a formation of B-17’s from the 379th Bomb Group fly through the chaos, doggedly maintaining their course, as they head on to attack the huge synthetic oil refinery at Meresburg, southern Germany, on 11 September 1944. So vital was this refinery to the Nazi war machine that it became one of the most heavily defended targets in Germany, the air defences even surpassing those of Berlin.
Signed by Artist, P-51 Ace and veteran Lufwaffe pilot
