Summary

Study for 'the Sea of Galilee- Aeroplanes attacking Turkish Boats, 1919' (iwm Art 3080)
image: an aerial view over the Sea of Galilee, flanked by hills on the right-hand shore, the river Jordan in the lower left

and a snow-capped Mount Hermon rising above clouds in upper right of the composition. Two biplanes fly above the lake and another flies at a lower altitude towards the four small, dark shapes of Turkish motorboats moving on the water below. A line curves down from the upper right, ending in a tear-drop shape, indicating that something has been dropped from a plane above.
