Wien 298, only state. Wood engraving on wove paper, watermarked JAPAN, full margins. One of only 22 signed impressions (the edition of 250 was never completed). Very rare. Signed, titled and numbered 14/250 in pencil.
Flight was printed by Landacre as a vertical composition, as pictured, or a horizontal, both equally compelling but with divergent effects. An abstraction in the vertical configuration, Flight reads as a landscape in the horizontal format. The print was included in the 50th anniversary exhibition in Philadelphia in 1954 to honor the first flight of the Wright Brothers.
