Louis Vuitton: The Art of the Automobile

Explosive race cars that once competed at Le Mans, stately touring cars made for coursing through the European countryside, one-of-a-kind concept cars that represent the cutting edge of design in their day: From Alfa Romeo to Voisin, some of the most magnificent machines and the most extraordinary bodywork in the history of the automobile are gathered on these pages.

Louis Vuitton has long paid tribute to automotive excellence and creativity by sponsoring vintage car rallies, concours d’elegance, and awards. The outstanding cars honored at those events are celebrated here as masterpieces of the applied arts, with a host of splendid photographs conveying their timeless beauty.
