Aviation Fine Art Photography

What is included in Peter Lik’s Aviator Collection?

Peter Lik’s Aviator Collection celebrates the machines that defined the golden age of flight. At its heart is the Douglas DC-3, captured on the runways and in the hangars of Aurora and Madras, Oregon, and at dawn on the open flats of the Alvord Desert. The legendary P-51 Mustang appears in warm hangar light and at rest at the end of the runway.

The journey continues to Tucson, Arizona, inside the Air Force’s famed Boneyard, where B-52 bombers, F-16 fighters, and Twin Beech aircraft rest beneath desert storms. In Fairbanks, Alaska, snow settles over vintage C-54 Skymasters that still fly cargo today.

How are Peter Lik aviation prints made?

Every Peter Lik aviation print is produced in-house at the LIK Fine Art studio in Las Vegas, one of the few artist-owned fine art production facilities in the world. Each photograph is printed on museum-grade photographic paper and mounted beneath acrylic to reveal remarkable color, depth, and detail.

Collectors may choose a contemporary acrylic mount or an artisan frame assembled in the studio and finished with a canvas-wrapped liner. Each piece arrives with a hanging solution, while LIK Fine Art gallery consultants are available to assist with sizing, framing, and placement. Explore the LIK Fine Art framing guide to learn more about presentation options.

What sizes and formats are Peter Lik aviation prints available in?

Peter Lik aviation prints are available in square, classic 3:2 photographic, and panoramic formats. The collection ranges from intimate 10 inch Element works to sweeping panoramic images, with select aircraft portraits reaching more than nine feet long.

This range allows each aviation image to retain the composition Peter originally envisioned, whether expressed as a balanced square, a classic landscape or portrait, or an expansive panorama that carries a full wingspan across the wall.

Related works can also be discovered in the Black & White Photography, Automotive Collection Vol. 1, and Haas F1 Racing collections.

What is the difference between an Open Edition, Limited Edition, and Artist Proof?

Open Edition photographs are signed but not individually numbered and do not have a predetermined edition limit.

Limited Edition photographs are signed and individually numbered, with a fixed edition size listed on each artwork’s product page. Once every number in a Limited Edition has been reserved, the edition is permanently closed and no additional pieces are produced.

Artist Proofs belong to a separate, highly limited edition. Depending on the photograph, Artist Proof editions range from 10 to 45 individually numbered pieces. They are produced at a higher print resolution and presented beneath anti-reflective acrylic for exceptional clarity and detail.
