💛 THE EXPERT'S WORD

In 2018, the artist had the opportunity to attend the test days of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. At that time, spectators and the media were thrilled to discover the 'pink pig' Porsche 911 RSR (Type 991), a vibrant tribute to the legendary Porsche 917/20 that had triumphed at the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1971, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the brand.

At the time, the Porsche 917, designed by Anatole Lapine, had originally been conceived as a bold advertising strategy for the Frankfurt-based sausage brand 'Hippie', provoking a wide range of reactions. This unique car gained its nickname due to its unusual pink livery with butcher's cuts marked on it, resembling a pig carcass. It's one of the most iconic liveries in motorsport history.

Such was the excitement generated by this historic tribute in 2018 that a fortnight later, at the start of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, a multitude of merchandise featuring the 'pink pig' invaded the circuit's shops: umbrellas, socks, cuddly toys, t-shirts and much more.

Amused by this craze and historical reminiscence, the artist drew inspiration from it to create a memorable illustration.

What are the differences between the supports?

Fine Art Paper, Digigraphy printing

Digigraphie is a label of excellence created by Epson that enables us to reproduce a work of art in a limited series.

All our Fine Art Paper Editions are produced exclusively on Epson Stylus Pro inkjet printers, the best Fine Art printing system available today.

Epson Ultrachrome pigment inks and Digigraphie-approved textured papers guarantee dazzling rendition, exceptional colour reliability, lightfastness and great stability over time, a top-of-the-range system used by professional galleries and the world's greatest museums.

Simple Plexiglas

The printing is done directly onto the back of 4mm thick Plexiglas, then enhanced with a layer of white adhesive.

The Plexiglas is fitted with a 2cm thick medium wood hanging frame that allows the picture to be removed from the wall.

It's a modern support that's extremely bright and deep, perfectly suited to small and medium formats.

Premium Plexiglas

The top-of-the-range

1 of 3

The printing is done directly onto the back of 4mm thick Plexiglas, then enhanced with a layer of white.

The Plexiglas is then lined with an aluminium plate and a 2 cm thick hanging frame, also in aluminium, so that the illustration can be lifted off the wall.

The aluminium plate gives the painting excellent rigidity, avoiding reflections caused by the flexibility of the Plexiglas, which is very appreciated for large formats.

This is a very high-end modern medium, extremely luminous and deep.
