‘Racing Legends 292’ is a stylish and unique full-size pocket square in silk and has been created in collaboration with German artist Markus Haub, the most innovative classic car artist working in Europe today. Markus combines first-hand knowledge and love for the cars, drawn from attending classic car events and working as a car designer, with his traditional and digital art skills to create this unique automotive art.
Markus’ original artwork on box canvas is part of the ‘Racing Legends’ series, started in 2008 and focusing mainly on sports and racing cars from the 1960s and 1970s. This work was inspired by a lifelong passion for Markus, the iconic Porsche 911, a sleek creation designed to arrow through the landscape and instantly recognisable from any angle.
The artwork is reproduced with a good balance of colour between the printed and reverse sides of the silk pocket square so works perfectly with any pocket square fold. The image is framed by the pocket square’s petrol blue border and red hand-rolled & hand-sewn hem.
'Racing Legends 292' is presented in a complimentary Otway & Orford branded gift box with its blueberry-coloured lid and pale blue base. Inside each box, the high-quality sports car silk pocket square is tissue-wrapped and accompanied by a card telling the story of the artist and his vibrant artwork.
