A poignant reminder of WWI in this framed collotype of biplanes over Ypres by W.L. Wyllie, taken from his watercolour drawing "The Ypres Salient". A great picture of aerial combat over Ypres (copyrighted and published by R. Dunthorne, Vigo Street, London, W.).

Of interested, the frontispiece of 'In The Ypres Salient The Story Of A Fortnight's Canadian Fighting June 2nd-16th 1916' by Beckles Willson, is the key to "THE YPRES SALIENT" by W.L. Wyllie, R.A. (of which the last image is a copy).
