In this video for our London exhibition ‘In Air and Fire: War Artists, the Battle of Britain and the Blitz’ artist Anne Desmet explains how centuries-old architecture, such as St Paul’s Cathedral, could symbolise continuity and change, not least during the Blitz. Citing as inspiration the vapour trails from Paul Nash’s painting ‘The Battle of Britain’, she describes how her wood engravings of St Paul’s represent in stages the diurnal passing of time, from dusk until dawn, with contrails and airc

Next in our new video series is behind the scenes footage of the Hawker Typhoon 1B aircraft build. Originally designed as a twelve-gun fighter, the Typhoon was intended to be the successor to the Hurricane. It suffered many development problems both with the airframe and its twenty-four cylinder Napier Sabre engine. At the time of its introduction in 1941, it was the first 400mph fighter in the RAF and proved a match for the low level tip-and-run Focke-Wulf Fw190s. It was, however, in the low le
