Story behind
Fine Art Prints Deconstructed
Welcome to Automobilist! To Hollywood in a single image. Where the journey of an entire film can be experienced as you peruse the pages of this book.
It takes 200 hours of research to find the perfect motorsport moment. Another 4,000 hours of design and development across several months to model and create the perfect car, correctly re-created down to the last nut, bolt, scratch and coat of paint. And the right partners who passionately support their vision.
Triple World Champion Sir Jackie Stewart once famously said that the motor racing in his day and before was a time when sex was safe and motor racing was dangerous. Welcome to a journey through that time, re-creating history where often one look captures the emotion and timelessness of a thousand words.
