The story behind the motif
Poster with the illustration "Crosby", a work by Frederick Gordon Crosby (1885-1943) who was a British artist known for his dynamic and dramatic depictions of early motor sports.
The image captures an intense scene from a car race, probably during the early 20th century when cars were still new and experimental. It was also during this period that car racing began to be organized. The illustration shows two racing cars speeding down a country road, with drivers and mechanics exposed in open vehicles.
Crosby worked as an illustrator for the British car magazine The Autocar and is known for depicting speed, movement and technical detail. His works were often romanticized and helped shape motorsport's heroic image in its early decades.
Frame not included.
