Homeward Bound by astronaut artist Alan Bean.

 

On Christmas morning of 1968, Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders completed their tenth lunar orbit in man's first trip to the moon. With the burn of the service module engine just completed on the back side of the moon, these men are homeward bound.

PROJECT APOLLO! Man's triumphant travel to, and safe return from, the moon remains one of the 20th century's most significant accomplishments. And, in the tradition of frontier artist-explorers Frederic Remington and Charles M. Russell, fine artist-astronaut-moonwalker Alan Bean was there!
