The story of this print.
THE AMAZING F1 LIGIER...
BY HUGO PRATT

In 1993, Ligier revived the Art Car tradition which had seen Calder, Lichtenstein or Warhol appropriate the bodywork of some amazing racing cars.

For the last 2 races of the season, in Japan and Australia, Hugo Pratt was entrusted with the livery of the Ligier JS39.


The famous Italian cartoonist was the creator of Corto Maltese, a mysterious sailor adventurer, tireless traveler, recognizable as much by his cap as by his cigarette firmly planted between his lips.

Is this the reason, why the main sponsor of the team, Gitanes Blondes, chose him to dress the JS39?

Or because Corto Maltese’s mother was a gypsy from Seville? A gypsy who is naturally in the place of honor in this livery F1 camouflage...

That we will never know!
But for its last race, in Australia, the n°25 car, was wearing the designer’s livery and driven by Martin Brundle, who finished the season in sixth place, despite starting in the back of the grid. An amazing and historic livery that deserved a print!
