Aviation Art Ross Buckland The Guardians Zero

Lot Passed

Sacred Mount Fuji seems to stand with these patroling Zero fighters to protect the homeland. For centuries the Japanese worked to shield their culture from unnecessary unwanted foreign influence. With their role shifted from conqueror to defender, these zero pilots face what seems an uncertain future. In the Summer of 1945 Wotakeo Tanimizu, an experienced combat pilot and ace with some eighteen victories, leads a flight of A6M52C Zeros from Kagashima Air Base on a home defense mission. A L/E print of 850 prints this print is signed and numbered by the artist. It has never been mounted and is in perfect condition. It comes with a COA suitable for framing.The image measures 24 1/2" x 16".
