EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the London-Brighton Race in 1913, featuring Harold Barnwell, a pioneer aviator and pilot of the Martinsyde aircraft. Standing confidently beside his plane, Barnwell exudes a sense of determination and passion for flight. Dressed in traditional aviation attire, complete with a cap and headdress, Barnwell represents the epitome of British aviation during this era. His hands casually tucked into his pockets suggest both ease and readiness for the upcoming race. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the image, transporting us back to the early 20th century. The London-Brighton Race was an exhilarating competition that showcased Britain's growing fascination with air transport. As one of its competitors, Barnwell symbolizes not only skill but also bravery as he prepares to take on this thrilling challenge. The wheel of his aircraft prominently displayed behind him serves as a reminder of the technological advancements made in aviation during this period. This remarkable portrait is part of R. Dallas Brett's comprehensive collection titled "History of British Aviation 1908-1914". Preserved by The Aviation Book Club in London since its publication in 1934, it stands as a testament to our rich aviation heritage. As we gaze upon this print from Heritage Images' collection curated by The Print Collector29, we are reminded of Harold Barnwell's significant contribution to British aviation history and how far we have come since those pioneering days.
