Ivan Berryman Art Paintings in Progress Air Gunners |
Tribute to the Air Gunners by Ivan Berryman. WW1 Aces series painting depicting a Royal Aircraft Establishment FE2. The vulnerability of early air gunners is evident in this painting as this Royal Aircraft Establishment FE 2 comes under attack from a Fokker E.III early in World War 1. Archaic in appearance, compared to their German rivals, the FE2 was nevertheless heavily armed with three Lewis guns arranged to cover almost every angle, one of them fixed in a forward firing position for the pilot to operate. |
