EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating front cover of Les Sports Modernes magazine from May 1905 showcases a remarkable moment in automotive history. The vibrant and dynamic color lithograph, created by Ernest Montaut, depicts the thrilling race between a Panhard Levassor car equipped with Michelin tires and the world's fastest train. In this exhilarating image, we witness the incredible speed and power of Michelin tires as they outperform even the mighty rail system. Heath, the daring driver behind the wheel of the Panhard Levassor, manages to outrun the speeding locomotive by an astonishing 30 minutes over a challenging 600-kilometer course. As our eyes are drawn to every detail in this artwork, we can almost feel our hearts racing alongside Heath as he navigates treacherous bends on his quest for victory. The aqueduct spanning beneath him adds an extra layer of danger and excitement to this already adrenaline-fueled scene. This print encapsulates not only a thrilling competition but also symbolizes mankind's relentless pursuit of progress and innovation. It represents a pivotal moment when motorcars started to challenge traditional modes of transportation and paved their way into becoming symbols of modern sports. With its vivid colors and masterful composition, this artwork is truly timeless. It serves as a reminder that speed has always been synonymous with thrill and danger while showcasing Michelin's pioneering role in revolutionizing road travel through their superior tire technology.
