Description
The aviation art print ‘Russian Roulette’ by Robert Taylor depicts a Soviet Yak 3 hurtling towards the viewer in a typically daring head-on attack on a Bf109. Other Yaks wheel and turn frantically in search of the enemy. Casualties on both sides are evident. Away into the distant horizon stretches a vast Russian sky, painted in Robert’s inimitable style. Soon all will be quiet again until the next ferocious encounter.
