EDITORS COMMENTS
Hit!: A Patrol by C.R. Fleming-Williams (1874-1951) captures the intensity and determination of a British F2A flying boat patrol during World War I. In this watercolor painting from around 1918, we see several flying boats in formation, dropping bombs on a German submarine below. The sun casts a warm, golden light over the scene, illuminating the men and their machinery in vivid detail. The masculine energy of the male crew members is palpable as they focus intently on their mission, their expressions determined and resolute. The painting's horizontal composition emphasizes the vast expanse of water and sky, highlighting the isolation and danger of their mission. The watercolors used by Fleming-Williams capture the rich textures and colors of the scene, from the rippling water to the intricate details of the flying boats and their bombs. This powerful image, held in the Imperial War Museum in London, serves as a testament to the bravery and skill of the pilots and crew members who risked their lives to protect their country during wartime.
