Emerson Fittipaldi: The Dawn of a Champion.

1972 was the year Emerson Fittipaldi rewrote the record books. This tribute captures the Brazilian legend at Kyalami, sporting his iconic long sideburns and a focused gaze that would eventually lead him to his first World Title.

Behind him, the Lotus 72D, a car that changed the silhouette of F1 forever. This print celebrates the smooth, precise style that made Fittipaldi an icon of the sport. A must-have for those who appreciate the era where talent and technology met at the pinnacle of speed.
