(121 x 81 cm) Printer: Monegasque, Monte-Carlo Condition Details: (A) backed on Japan paper, tiny tears and minimal staining in the margins, small stain in the top right corner (in the margin) #Monaco; Monte Carlo #Motor Sports #Autos #Art Deco Bathed in a fiery red sunset, Robert Falcucci’s striking design for the second Monaco Grand Prix stands as one of the most iconic early racing posters. As the first illustrated advertisement for the event—its debut year featured only text—it captures the raw speed and power of the Mercedes SSKL in a composition as dynamic as the race itself. That year, Rene Dreyfus claimed victory in his Bugatti T35B, adding to the legend of Monaco. A painter, decorator, and illustrator, Falcucci first made his mark in automotive graphics at Renault before cementing his legacy with his celebrated Monaco posters of the 1930s. Condition: This is an original vintage poster. (A) backed on Japan paper, tiny tears and minimal staining in the margins, small stain in the top right corner (in the margin)
