Bearing all the familiar hallmarks of his powerful atmospheric paintings, this dramatic wintery morning take-off portrayal of a Boeing E-3A AWACS aircraft of the NATO Airborne Early Warning Force is set at Geilenkirchen, an area noted for leaden skies and long cold winters. With his masterly technique, Michael Rondot has combined superb detail and technical accuracy with an emotionally charged atmosphere that really captures the essence of ‘heavy metal’ in action.
In one of his finest works available, Michael Rondot pays tribute to the multi-national crews of NATO E-3s who have been involved in every major air battle of the conflict over the former Yugoslavia.
