Description

Homeward Bound – The Story Behind the Print

Homeward Bound captures a typical scene from the demanding fighter battles of the summer of 1940.

A Bf 109 of JG 26 “Schlageter” has been damaged in combat over southern England. With its engine overheating and smoke beginning to trail behind, the aircraft heads back across the Channel while squadron commander Adolf Galland closes in to escort it.

The painting focuses on the vulnerability of even experienced fighter units during the sustained air fighting of the Battle of Britain.

Every edition is hand numbered and signed by the artists together with Luftwaffe Battle of Britain veterans Generalleutnant Günther Rall KC with Oak Leaves and Swords and Major Hans-Ekkehard Bob KC.
