EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print showcases a remarkable poster advertising Michelin tyres, boldly proclaiming their superiority over rail travel. Created by the talented artist Montaut, this colourful lithograph captures the essence of speed and excitement that comes with driving on Michelin tyres. The image depicts an exhilarating race between a Panhard Levassor automobile and the world's fastest train. Incredibly, the car triumphs over the train by more than 30 minutes in a thrilling 600km journey. The daring driver navigates treacherous bends, showcasing both skill and bravery as he outpaces the locomotive. With its vibrant hues and dynamic composition, this artwork perfectly encapsulates the thrill of motoring during its early days. It evokes a sense of danger and adventure as drivers push themselves to new limits in pursuit of speed. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print also serves as a testament to Michelin's commitment to innovation and excellence in tyre manufacturing. By highlighting their ability to surpass traditional modes of transportation like railways, Michelin solidifies itself as an industry leader in providing superior performance for automobiles. This extraordinary piece from Bridgeman Images not only celebrates the artistry of Montaut but also pays homage to an era when motorcars were revolutionizing travel possibilities worldwide.
