John Elwell (English, born 1949)
A magnificent and unique large scale sculptural model of the 1931 Schneider Trophy winning Supermarine S.6B racing seaplane.
The hand-formed aluminium panels formed over a space frame, incorporating cockpit detail and tailplane decals, the model mounted on a cantilevered, stepped hardwood display base, with streamlined aluminium detailing, fully adjustable with allen key, bearing a silver engraved plaque signed John Elwell and numbered 1/1, dated 2012.
Additional Notes: the sculptural aluminium models of John Elwell are unique in their concept and construction, and unique in fact – each piece is a one-off, one of a kind, a limited edition of one example only.
