A long, elegant early‑20th‑century luxury car is rendered with crisp detail against a dark background, its brass trim, with dual side‑mounted spares, whitewall tires, and chauffeur’s open cockpit all emphasizing the formality and opulence of the era. The closed rear compartment and sweeping fenders give it the stately presence associated with high‑end marques of the 1910s–1920s, while the artist’s signature, John M. Rattenbury ’87, anchors the illustration as a modern tribute to a classic machine.Collection
