Artist's Description
This is a closeup photo of the radial engine and propeller on the front of of a World War I biplane. Now hanging in a museum, dust on her propeller lets us know that this aviator has long since retired.
The Nieuport 28C.1 is a French airplane from World War I. Although rejected by the French, it was the first fighter aircraft to serve with an American fighter unit under American command and in support of U.S. troops. After the war they were used by the US military for naval aviation tests, and in private hands they could be seen in movies and modified for aerial racing.
The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center is part of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, located at Washington Dulles Airport just outside Washington DC. The center is large enough to house items that are unable to fit inside the National Air and Space Museum's building on the National Mall in Washington DC.
About Darin Volpe
I have been photographing the things I see for over thirty years. A resident of San Luis Obispo County, I'm lucky to have many excellent photo destinations within a few minutes' or hours' drive. Beyond the local area, I have traveled throughout California and the western United States, visited far away American destinations such as Chicago, New York, Florida, and Alaska, and international destinations in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. My photography varies from Architecture to Industrial Art to Nature to Wildlife and I'm sure you'll find something suitable for your home or office. Visit my blog
