EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print depicts a fragment of Duralium, the innovative lightweight material used in the construction of German Zeppelin airships, which was brought down during an air raid over Billericay, Essex, on the night of September 23rd-24th, 1916. The exact Zeppelin that provided this piece remains uncertain, with both the L32 and L33 having been engaged in combat during that period. The Allied flags proudly displayed in the background serve as a testament to the unified front against the enemy during World War I. The print, created on a watercolour card, was sold for the benefit of the London, Midland and Western Railway War Seal Fund. The Duralium fragment is clearly marked with the year of its acquisition, 1916, and bears the inscription "Zeppelin." This commemorative art piece is a poignant reminder of the aeronautical and military history of the time, and the determination of the Allied forces to defend their homeland against the threat of Zeppelin raids. The intricately detailed painting captures the essence of the historical event, transporting us back to a time of great conflict and resilience. This unique piece, with its rich history and significance, is an invaluable addition to any collection focused on World War I, aviation history, or military memorabilia.
