Hindenburg picture and other military aviation art

I just found this picture of the Hindenburg and wanted to share it with you.

Hindenburg - Ship of Dreams

The picture is part of The Military Art Gallery featuring a vast selection of military art prints. There are more airship pictures in the gallery for example here pictures by the Artist Marii Chernev featuring a German Zeppelin over the English Coast 1916 and a German observation balloon in spring 1915. Maybe there are even more great pictures, have a look around in The Military Art Gallery and let us know. If you find a good one post a link in the comments.

Airship Art - Sneak Preview

Paul Adams provided me with this picture based on the "famous" photo of the ZR1 unmasting from the Patoka, it's a sneak peak of a newly commissioned airship painting that is one of a series depicting the history of rigid airships. He says, that the series should be released in the not to distant future, they are currently working out the media, format and some other details. Of course we will report on it, when we have news about them.
