A large and partially scratch built diorama...

£60 - £80

A large and partially scratch built diorama depicting the shooting down of a Zeppelin by a British bi-plane, the airship marked 'L31' and with applied flames and smoke, the bi-plane climbing away to the left, a model village below and the backing board painted to represent a night sky with searchlights, all within a deep glazed frame measuring 52 x 100 cm.



nb. It is not clear which Zeppelin this scene is intended to represent, since the German Navy Airship LZ 31 was destroyed by an accident in its hangar.
