'Oops!' - Sopwith Camel accident, painting by Graham Turner 'Oops!' Ref: GT-GW9

A pilot walks away from his Sopwith Camel having tipped it onto its nose on landing. He is fortunate that it is only his pride that is hurt - a large proportion of aircrew casualties during the First World War were caused by accidents rather than enemy action, and the Camel's incredible responsiveness and manoeuvrability made it a tricky aeroplane for pilots to master, often with fatal consequences.

Original gouache painting by Graham Turner - image size 27cm x 43cm (10.5"x 17")

Purchasing an Original Painting

The cost of shipping original paintings varies, depending on their size, value and destination. Our usual shipping rates do not apply, but we would be happy to provide a quote for shipping to your address if you are unable to collect.

Award Winning First World War Aviation Art
