Spitfires Over St Michaels Mount by Robert Taylor.
Robert has chosen
to show a Spitfire in the Battle of Britain colours of No 41 Squadron
for his romantic portrayal of a Spitfire over St Michaels Mount, just
off the coast of Cornwall – where the southwest corner of the British
Isles meets the mighty Atlantic. This famous and historic landmark
dating back to the Iron Age is steeped in folklore and legend. The
castle of St Michaels Mount, perched atop a great granite rock that
rises majestically out of the sea in Mounts Bay, for centuries made a
tempting site for fighting forces. Here Robert cleverly uses this
historic fort to provide a symbolic backdrop to a wonderful study of one
of the most beautiful aircraft ever built.
