Renault 1925

The exhilarating feeling of speed is felt in this thrilling design for Renault cars by Pierre de Bas. It is one of the rarer car posters created during this era of rapid auto expansion post WWI. A dramatic perspective is used here, placing the viewer below the car as it races past, dust pooling in its midst. The wheels seem to leap off the poster towards us, further enhancing the sense of speed. Renault was established in 1899 by Louis, Marcel and Fernand Renault. The company began with car production and during WWI they branched into airplane, ammunition and tank production. They began manufacturing agricultural equipment after the basic Renault engine for a WWI tank was used in designs for tractors. This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction.
