A painting by my late father, James Field. He was an artist and illustrator with a passion for history. Below is the accompanying text he wrote at the time:
Running up the Solent is RMS Mauretania in full anti-submarine “dazzle” camouflage. Flying above is a Felixstowe F2A similarly camouflaged for sea landings, on its way to RAF Calshot airbase.
