Description

'31 German Grand Prix Nürburgring Caracciola MERCEDES SSKL Walter GOTSCHKE Print
Content of this listing © But for the Love of Cars. All rights reserved.
Beautifully executed print of a Walter Gotschke painting showing Rudolf Caracciola piloting his Mercedes SSKL to victory in the 1931 German Grand Prix. Despite pouring rain and a tight course ill-suited for the big, powerful SSKL, Caracciola notched a convincing win. (Please pardon any appearance of bowing — this is a photographic artifact. Print is straight and square.)
ABOUT THE PRINT
This painting ranks among those that German artist Walter Gotschke considered his best work on one of his most-studied subjects: the Mercedes-Benz racing car in action. Gotschke's impressionistic gouaches were painstakingly researched and rendered to portray the true character of the car and the racing style and personality of each racing driver in dramatic racing situations. Gotschke's first race sketches were published in 1929 when he was seventeen years old, and he continued to paint thrilling automobile races scenes into his 70s.
This print is beautifully rendered on a substantial matte white stock. Would look striking framed.
Entire piece measures approximately 12 x 16" (31 x 41cm); print area measures 8 x 11 1/2" (20 x 30cm).
Print is new, with a bright, unblemished print surface. Sharp edges and corners. Handled with gloves to keep it clean and crisp. WGMB11.
