Concorde Farewell
A tribute to Concorde, 1969-2003
Description
Concorde made supersonic history, bringing Mach 2 international travel in luxury surroundings at the edge of space to millions of air travellers. It is instantly recognisable, but Concorde is far more than just a sleek and pretty aircraft. Its sheer size, combined with the glorious power and noise of its Olympus engines endow Concorde with a unique charisma. There is no other aircraft capable of stopping people in their tracks and making them look to the sky in awe like Concorde taking off in full reheat. Artist Michael Rondot has captured this sense of power and energy in CONCORDE FAREWELL, a painting that pays tribute to one of the most impressive aircraft in a century of flight.
For most of us lesser mortals the only glimpse we had of the beautiful Concorde in action was on arrival or departure at an airport. With its slender nose perched high like a great white bird of prey, it made an unforgettable sight. We will all miss Concorde and we may not see anything like her again. CONCORDE FAREWELL is an opportunity to own a piece of supersonic history, a lasting reminder of Concorde, with the glorious mighty roar of Olympus engines in reheat and a cold November day to remember her by. Between 1969 and 2003 the British Airways and Air France Concorde fleet carried a total of approximately 3.9 million passengers.
A certificate of authenticity accompanies each copy of this beautiful print which is sure to become a treasured collector's gem.
