In the history of civilian aviation there are few aircraft
which have caught the attention and imagination of enthusiasts
in the way the Constellation has. It was a graceful, powerful
airplane that looked the part, and today is remembered as one
of the world’s great airliners. Robert Watts captures the
romance of that golden era of passenger flight in his nostalgic
painting of a L-049 Constellation. Seen in American Airlines
colors, a ‘Connie’ descends over London in the soft
early morning light after an overnight flight from New York.
