George Oliver 'Bernd Rosemeyer and Ferdinand Porsche with Auto Union' Photograph

Bernd Rosemeyer and Ferdinand Porsche with Auto Union by Anonymous. Bernd Rosemeyer and Ferdinand Porsche with Auto Union, c1937-c1938. This streamlined vehicle designed by Porsche was driven by Bernd Rosemeyer to set several world speed records for cars of engine capacities of less than 8000cc in 1937. He was killed in 1938 when, attempting to regain the record from Mercedes, his Auto Union crashed on the Frankfurt-Darmstadt Autobahn at 270 mph. Rosemeyer was also a prolifically successful racing driver, winning the European Grand Prix Championship in 1936. Porsche went on to found his own famous motor company together with his son in 1947. Produced on 280gsm fine art paper designed for museum-quality reproductions. The paper has a gently textured matt surface making it especially well suited for giclée reproductions of art prints and paintings.
