THIS stunning artwork was painted by Brian Knight GAvA in 1982 as a commissioned cover design for Corgi Books' best-selling Nightfighter written by Sqdn. Ldr. C F Rawnsley and Robert Wright with a Foreword by Group Captain John 'Cat's Eyes' Cunningham.
This is the original artwork which has been professionally framed, sans glass, and depicts a dramatic encounter over the British Isles when 'Cat's Eyes' Cunningham of No.604 Squadron RAF flying a Bristol Beaufighter Mk.1F brought down a Luftwaffe Heinkel He 111 bomber.
