FREEDOM

Limited Edition Giclée Print

The Painting depicts a peaceful scene of a solitary Spitfire flying over the estuaries of southeast England, alone and free in a sunlit sky. The aircraft featured is a MkVB Spitfire of 610 Sqn., which was based at Ludham in the summer of 1942 and was briefly the personal aircraft of Flight Commander Denis Crowley-Milling following his return to the unit after spending some twelve months evading capture in occupied Europe. He survived the war and became a permanent commissioned officer in the Royal Air Force with a long and distinguished career.

Prints

All prints are produced individually to order using the Giclée printing technique,

on superb fine art heavyweight paper, using the leading inks in the industry today.

 

The sophisticated Giclée reproduction technology is widely regarded as

 the very best fine art printing method currently available.

 

The image quality is far better than litho printing providing high resistance to fading

and posses archival standards of permanence,

which is why Giclée prints are widely found in museums and galleries around the world.

 

Remarque

A remarque is an original pencil drawing that is added to a limited edition print by the artist,

usually in the white border beneath the image.

These remarque prints are truly exclusive and offers a unique way to collect

an original piece of art without going to the expense of an oil painting.

 

I only complete the remarque drawing when an order is placed

so if you require a specific remarque on your print,

such as a particular squadron, please request this with your order.

 

Remarque edition prints are limited to exceptionally low numbers making them truly unique and exclusive.

 

Counter Signed Remarque Edition

Each remarque edition is signed by another pilot who had a quest for freedom, 'Jimmy' James, squadron leader and 'great escapee'. His aircraft was shot down by heavy flack over the Dutch coast in 1940 and he was taken prisoner. From that moment on he could think of nothing but escaping from his German captors and returning home. In total he made 12 escape attempts, including the Great Escape. Eventually they sent him to the dreaded concentration camp of Sachsenhausen, where he escaped from there too. 'Jimmy' James was, without doubt, the greatest escaper and an inspiration in this fight for freedom.
