The illustration presents a Carrozzeria Touring Milano design for a Berlinetta Superleggera intended for the Ferrari 166 S chassis, shown in a sleek side profile with a long hood, wire wheels, and a fastback roofline rendered in smooth airbrush shading. The Italian text translates to “Berlinetta Superleggera Le Mans on Ferrari type 166 S chassis,” and the caption below identifies it as an airbrush figure by Federico Formenti from 1949, complete with scale markings in both imperial and metric units that reinforce its role as a formal design study rather than a commercial poster.Collection
