The air shimmers with Mediterranean heat as the Fiat C.R.42 Falco, gleaming under the sun, prepares for take-off. Its distinctive yellow cowling and mottled camouflage glint against the clear sky, a tribute to the bravery and elegance of Italy’s daring fighter pilots during the Second World War. You can almost feel the whir of the Fiat engine, hear the whine of the slipstream, and imagine the fierce duels unfolding above the deserts and skies of Europe.

This collectible print presents the Fiat C.R.42 Falco, one of the finest examples of the ultimate generation of biplane fighters. Designed by Celestino Rosatelli and produced by Fiat, the C.R.42 saw extensive service during WWII with the Regia Aeronautica and later the Luftwaffe. This particular aircraft, NM370, is a beautifully restored example, depicted in authentic Italian Air Force markings and photographed against a period hangar setting. Measuring approximately 10¼ x 8⅛ inches and preserved in good condition, this print offers an evocative glimpse into the twilight era of the biplane fighter.

Collecting prints like this honours a rich legacy of daring pilots and innovative engineers who pushed the limits of flight. For historians, collectors, and aviation enthusiasts alike, this image captures a proud, fleeting moment when craftsmanship and courage ruled the skies — a time not to be forgotten.
