EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a sunny day in May 1938, where the Standard Flying Twelve automobile was showcased at the prestigious Standard Car Owners Club Gymkhana. The talented artist behind this masterpiece is Bill Brunell, who beautifully captured the essence of this classic car event. In the image, we see a young boy leaning out of the window of the Standard Flying Twelve with sheer excitement on his face. His hands firmly grasp onto a pole as he eagerly watches the thrilling competition unfold before him. Surrounding him are fellow club members and motoring enthusiasts, all gathered in an open grassy field transformed into a challenging course for these vintage cars. The scene exudes nostalgia as it transports us to an era when driving was not just about getting from point A to B but also about embracing fun and adventure on farmland roads. The monochrome effect adds depth and timelessness to this snapshot of British motoring history. As we admire this remarkable piece by WJ Brunell, let's appreciate how it encapsulates both the beauty of classic automobiles and the camaraderie among car enthusiasts during that golden age of transportation. This print serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with vintage cars and their place in our collective memory.
