Available for auction is an original artwork titled “#RoadToLemans” by artist Christopher Draeger. This unique work of art was created on a high-quality, 40” x 20” premium canvas. With great attention to detail and passion for Porsche and motorsport, most of the work was done with Marabu colors - some of the best high-quality specialist paints produced just a few kilometers from Zuffenhausen. The standout feature of this painting is that the work of art is completely black/white, only the characteristic colored stripe on the side of the car is finished in real 24k gold.



The story behind the artwork involves the Porsche 911 RSR Type 7 from the Proton Competition. Initially Type 7 was just a small social media project with which Porsche wanted to address new target groups on social media. Type 7 is now becoming a real sub-brand of the car manufacturer. At the end of 2018, the marketing team asked itself how it could attract young, style-conscious and art-loving people to the brand and thus appeal to an audience that perhaps cannot or does not want to afford a Porsche. The name is derived from the Type 7, the first prototype of the later 911. The Type 7 proves that even the most successful journey begins with the first step. You may even get stuck, but with the right mentality you can achieve success.



The artist would like you to know: “Behind the synonym DCart is Christopher Draeger, born in the 1980s in Friedrichshafen, Germany at Lake Constance. Due to the early entry into active motorsport and stations at the renowned German car magazine "auto motor und sport" and Porsche, there is more than enough petrol in his head. But since early childhood, art and creative work have been the second great passion in his life. Thanks to his mother, a studied art teacher, professionalism came more and more into his work, which now includes several hundred individual pieces and inspires sports car and motorsport fans worldwide.”
