August, 1917, Raymond Collishaw leads the Sopwith
Triplanes
of Naval 10 in a dogfight against the
Albatrosses of Jagdstaffel 11. The German fighter
in the upper left was flown by Carlos Meyer Baldo,
the only Venezuelan in the German Air Force! The
particular Sopwith Triplane shown here was a rare late
version with twin guns rather than the usual single gun.


The image was originally commissioned for a
box top for Capitan Games of Spain.

This original painting was exhibited at the Colony
Theatre, Burbank, California, June-July, 2006.
