James Field's Albert and the Whale
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:
During the summer and autumn of 1916 Albert Ball seems to have developed a personal grievance against Roland aircraft claiming seventeen between July 2nd and September 30th, in most cases specifying the CII Walfisch (whale). His mount was the Nieuport 17 armed with an over wing Lewis machine gun. He flew mainly in two aircraft, number A201 and then A213, as seen here, which had a red spinner added to the Nieuport’s propeller boss.
