Sea King Rescue – The Story Behind the Print
Robert Taylor’s Sea King Rescue portrays 820 Naval Air Squadron during rescue operations in the Falklands War.
After Atlantic Conveyor was struck by an Exocet missile, Sea King crews took part in lifting survivors from the stricken ship. The original product record notes that Prince Andrew was among the 820 Squadron pilots involved and that Taylor’s portrayal was approved before the prints were produced.
The painting focuses on the helicopter crews and the demanding rescue role carried out in the South Atlantic.
Each print is signed by Robert Taylor and Commander Ralph Wykes-Sneyd, Prince Andrew’s Commanding Officer.
