The Ultimate Symphony: Matra MS120B.

The Ultimate Symphony: Matra MS120B.

If you close your eyes, you can almost hear it. The 1971 South African Grand Prix was a playground for the incredible Matra V12, and Chris Amon was its lead conductor.

The MS120B, with its distinctive airbox and "Bleu de France" livery, remains one of the most beautiful and sonorous machines in Formula 1 history. This double-exposure artwork brings the intensity of Amon and the elegance of the Matra into one striking frame.

Bring the sound of 1971 to your walls. High-quality digital images are available now at motoprint.co.za
