EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithographic print showcases the remarkable Captain Pauline Gower, a trailblazing aviator and military figure during World War II. The image, created by renowned artist Ethel Gabain, measures 37.8x50.2 cm and is part of a series called "Women's Work in the War (Other than the Services)" published by The Ministry of Information: His Majesty's Stationery Office. In this portrait, Captain Pauline Gower exudes confidence and determination as she stands beside her aircraft. As one of the founding members of the Women's Air Transport Auxiliary (WATA), Gower played an instrumental role in supporting Britain's war effort through her exceptional piloting skills. Gower's contribution to aviation history cannot be overstated; she shattered gender barriers at a time when women were often overlooked in male-dominated fields. Her unwavering commitment to equality paved the way for future generations of female pilots. The engraving beautifully captures Gower within the cockpit, symbolizing her passion for flight and dedication to serving her country. This powerful depiction serves as a reminder of women's invaluable contributions during times of conflict. Now preserved in a private collection, this print from Fine Art Finder offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both Gabain's artistic talent and Captain Pauline Gower's indomitable spirit. It serves as a tribute to all those who defied societal norms and made significant strides towards gender equality throughout history.
