Pierre Gatier (French, 1878-1944). "Le Bearn Navire Forte - Avion" engraving, ca. 1920s. Signed in the plate AND hand signed in pencil at the lower right. Notation indicating printed by the artist at the lower left. Title handwritten in pencil at lower left corner. French artist Pierre Gatier's fascinating engraving depicting the French aircraft carrier Bearn - the only aircraft carrier produced by France until after World War II - in the sea with three planes in the air above and three more planes in the distance. During the 1920s, Bearn was converted from an incomplete Normandie-class battleship for the French Navy. This piece is not only an impressive work of art, it is also a visual record of military history.
