Wing, one of two, from Frost's Experimental Ornithopter

Wing, one of two, from Frost's Experimental Ornithopter

Right wing for a reconstruction of Vladimir Tatlin’s artwork ‘Letatlin’, by Henry Milner, 2013. Constructed of ash, leather, steel and cotton, Milner's 'Letatlin' is based on detailed study of Tatlin's only surviving prototype in the collections of the Russian Central Airforce Museum in Monino. This left wing is left uncovered to reveal the structure, as with Tatlin’s original. Milner was commissioned by Grad London for the Utopia Ltd exhibition in 2013, and the reconstruction featured in a number of international art exhibitions before being donated to the Science Museum Group.
