Description
Polished Perfection Limited Edition Sam Lyons Print
Fair warning: You might want to don your sunglasses before glancing at Sam Lyons’ Polished Perfection. That’s because the star of this 15″ x 20″ illustration is a gleaming silver Luscombe that shines so radiantly, it’s bound to make viewers squint. The airplane in question is a stunner in many ways, as it was awarded the Grand Champion Classic prize at the 2004 SUN ‘n FUN Fly-In in Lakeland, FL. Besides its brilliant sheen, those familiar with the model will admire how flawlessly Lyons duplicates the features unique to the antique airplane; everything from spinner to tailwheel is spot-on! Also impressive is the degree of detail in the grass and trees, the realistic blueness of the sky, and the genuine character in the pair of hangars. After a minute or two of taking in the image, you might start to believe you’re actually standing in the setting.
This picture is available as both an Artist Proof (limited to 20) and a signed & numbered Limited Edition print (limited to 200). Both versions are printed on acid-free paper, utilize first-rate permanent inks, and include a Certificate of Authenticity. Also offered are Prints on Canvas (limited to 25). An outstanding example of extraordinary aviation artwork that, like its subject, is a true champion.
