HMS Victory Photo File.  We thought we would share with our visitors some of the terrific photos of the classic warship HMS Victory we have in our possession.  Over 150 hi-res photos were taken by Ivan during research for his various paintings including HMS Victory.  Being a regular visitor to the ship at this time, he applied for and was granted special access to areas usually off limits to the public.  The photos below are a selection of the best photos taken.  All photos are copyright of Ivan Berryman, but he hopes displaying them here will be of use to other artists or model makers working on the Victory who are not lucky enough to be able to visit this historic ship in person.

Before a recent move to Scotland, Ivan Berryman lived and worked in Ryde, Isle of Wight.  As most of our visitors will know, this is just a short ferry ride from the oldest serving ship in the Royal Navy - HMS Victory - permanently preserved in dry dock at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.  The photos shown here were taken by Ivan in about 2001 to 2003 on various separate occasions.  The first shows the advantage of taking high resolution shots for such a research project.  Details of the multitude of rigging can be picked out from the photos very easily.

A triplet of images showing the detail available from the photos.

 

and finally.....

a memento of having been on HMS Victory for Ivan.

Ivan Berryman - Battle of Britain Art

Artist Ivan Berryman has been producing many pencil drawings depicting scenes from the Battle of Britain. Each of these is signed by one of the pilots who was actually present at the battle, and is often inspired by the events they took part in themselves. Special signed print editions have also been created from existing full colour print editions, with some featuring multiple pilot signatures. You can find all of Ivan's Battle of Britain artwork on his website - www.ivanberryman.com, or see a full list of pencil drawings - updated regularly, in our dedicated section of pencil drawings.

When you go to a product page for an item in our shop, click on the names of the pilots where they are linked in the text for an item to see a profile page for that pilot. Often we include photos of signing sessions along with details of their flying career, and a full list of all items signed by the pilot.

Pilot Signed Battle of Britain Prints and Original Pencil Drawings

Commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain

We are busy building up a portfolio of many many original pencil drawings which depict events from the Battle of Britain, the famous air battle won by 'the Few' in the summer of 1940. The British and Commonwealth pilots defended the air above Britain and the surrounding seaways from the might of the German Luftwaffe. Greatly outnumbered, the bravery of these young pilots saved the country from invasion, and let Britain survive to go on to defeat Germany. Without that first crucial victory, the outcome of the war could have been so very different. We have been busy arranging signing sessions with the few pilots who fought in that great battle who remain with us to this day. Our newly commissioned pencil drawings are often based on the descriptions of the battle by these great men, and are authenticated by their signatures. We have also had several editions of existing prints signed in full, or have signatures added to parts of existing editions. We have also incoporated signatures of some of the German pilots who also took part in the battle, some of whom went on to become top scoring aces of the war. See our Original Pencil Drawings Section - particularly the section of artists David Pentland and Ivan Berryman. Also, see our New Signature Editions section to see all of our newly signed editions.
