Available for auction is "The Original", an original painting on canvas by photographic artist David Marra of DM-PHOTO-ART. This artwork depicts the first-generation Porsche 930 Turbo, which, at the time of its introduction in 1975, was the fastest production car available in Germany.
This piece measures 48"x16" on heavy artist-grade canvas, and is professionally mounted inside of a 1.75" white float frame made from high-quality, North American poplar wood.
It was created as a single piece, comprising five separate and unique color schemes with a shadow between each panel, giving it an almost 3D-like appearance. It is finished with acrylic gel and pastels, then overlaid with a high-gloss medium to further enhance and protect its bold, vibrant colors and to ensure unmatched durability. After mounting the canvas, a dust cover panel was installed over the wood stretcher bars on the back to give the entire canvas a clean, professional look while enhancing its long-term integrity and durability.
This is a unique, one-of-a-kind, piece of art and no reproductions or prints will ever be offered of it. Hand-signed by the artist and complete with a signed Certificate of Authenticity (COA), this will make a beautiful addition to any automotive enthusiast's art collection. Wall hanging hardware is also included.
The artist wants you to know: "I have specialized in making transformative and photo-realistic art for over 15 years and, as a life-long Porsche fanatic, currently owning both a classic 911 and a brand new Macan, the subject I enjoy painting the most is, of course, Porsche cars. As a kid, the Porsche I was first drawn to was, naturally, the 930 Turbo, and it was a true joy to create this beautiful artwork showcasing it."
The buyer is responsible for shipping, handling, and fees.
