Mercedes W154 Grand Prix Car 1938

3D Car Profiles series

The mighty silver arrows of the 1930's were very hugely powerful Grand Prix cars, the pinnacle of motor racing at the time, before the inauguration of Formula One in the late 1940s. This abstract work portrays the front profiles of the 1938 Grand Prix winning car, capturing the famous curvaceous grille shape, body forms and the narrow skinny tyres that fought to contain all the power from their huge engines.
Created by thermoformed corian on corian background, professionally framed. Ready to hang. Original artwork, 1 of 1.
