The Canberra is still in service today and is probably the longest
serving operational military aircraft ever, worldwide, likely to achieve
an incredible 50 years in 2001. First flown in 1949, it became Britain's
first jet bomber, entering the Royal Air Force as the B2 with 101 squadron
at Binbrook in 1951. Canberra saw action in Malaya against terrorists in
1955 and again in the Suez crisis of 1956. The versatility of the basic
airframe is proved by its adoption for training, electronic counter
measures, target towing, photo reconnaissance and intruder operations, in
addition to the normal bombing role for which it was designed. Depicted in
the painting is a B2 in the early black and grey colour scheme which it
carried when introduced. In production for 10 years, 678 British-built
Canberras were completed, plus a further 451 license-built in Australia
and America.
Canberras Over Cambridgeshire by Robert Taylor.
Undeterred by Friday 13th, Wing Commander Beamont took off that day in May 1949, in the Canberra prototype. So accomplished was this new jet bomber that by the end of the 1950s, no fewer than 41 R.A.F. Squadrons were equipped with the Canberra, and the training of crews in another 16 countries had begun. Robert Taylors painting, shows the aircraft during a formation training sortie, rushing over the fenlands of Cambridgeshire, England, preparing to land at its R.A.F. Wyton base.

Canberras Over Cambridgeshire by Robert Taylor. - Editions Available
David Dipnals evocative images of the restful idyllic scenes of southern England are well known, epitomising, as they have for years, all that is endearing about traditional English landscapes. His well known images of his beautiful and fertile homeland are a world away from Australia, where he now spends most of his time. In the last decade, David Dipnall estimates that he has travelled nearly 2 million miles, continuing to maintain a busy work schedule of exhibitions and regularly commuting between England and Australia. His originals are highly sought after, and over fifty of his images have been published as limited edition prints, many of which have sold out. Always a traveller, he believes in the philosophy that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and his beautifully detailed traditional English landscapes are definitely painted from the heart.
