💛 THE EXPERT'S WORD

Jacky Ickx is renowned not only for his driving skills, but also for being a true gentleman.

In 1989, during the Dakar Rally, his team-mate Ari Vatanen, in a Peugeot, had already won several stages of the race. While they dominated the circuit with the best cars, Ickx and Vatanen fought it out at the front of the race.

Jean Todt, their team manager, asked them to calm down and proposed that the winner be decided by a coin toss. Vatanen won the toss and Ickx resigned himself to moderating his race to let his team-mate win.

However, on the final stage, Vatanen got lost and Ickx unintentionally overtook him. Just before the finish line, realising the situation, Ickx stopped and let Vatanen go ahead to cross the line as winner.

This exemplary attitude perfectly embodies sportsmanship and respect between team-mates.

What are the differences between the supports?

Fine Art Paper, Digigraphy printing

Digigraphie is a label of excellence created by Epson that enables us to reproduce a work of art in a limited series.

All our Fine Art Paper Editions are produced exclusively on Epson Stylus Pro inkjet printers, the best Fine Art printing system available today.

Epson Ultrachrome pigment inks and Digigraphie-approved textured papers guarantee dazzling rendition, exceptional colour reliability, lightfastness and great stability over time, a top-of-the-range system used by professional galleries and the world's greatest museums.

Simple Plexiglas

The printing is done directly onto the back of 4mm thick Plexiglas, then enhanced with a layer of white adhesive.

The Plexiglas is fitted with a 2cm thick medium wood hanging frame that allows the picture to be removed from the wall.

It's a modern support that's extremely bright and deep, perfectly suited to small and medium formats.

Premium Plexiglas

The top-of-the-range

1 of 3

The printing is done directly onto the back of 4mm thick Plexiglas, then enhanced with a layer of white.

The Plexiglas is then lined with an aluminium plate and a 2 cm thick hanging frame, also in aluminium, so that the illustration can be lifted off the wall.

The aluminium plate gives the painting excellent rigidity, avoiding reflections caused by the flexibility of the Plexiglas, which is very appreciated for large formats.

This is a very high-end modern medium, extremely luminous and deep.
