‘Deux Chevaux’
Photo of rear bumper detail of a vintage Citroen 2CV – a seminal moment in Automotive Design – in terms of function, style and democratic ambition. Truly a masterpiece.
Digital photo – taken with a Pentax K100D.

Nice image, Michael. A good sense of history, using the sepia tone.
They’re lovely things, 2CVs.
I adore these cars, and just look at that font, fantastic, well done Michael its a grea timage.
Never mind the font – look at the woodwork! That’s craftsmanship and design.
I thought from the Thumbnail one the previous page, it was a framed picture!
I’m still admiring the font, its a fantastic design in itself.
ok, I want a citroen, and a vw beetle, and a mini.
and Manya can come look ad the woodwork- it is great too –
Thanks guys. More of a snapshot really, but this image sums up many of my loves. Typography, Graphic Design, History, Product Design and Photography. Considering the 2CV is a pretty utilitarian design, I’m rather impressed that the design team found time to get the Citroen logo sooo right on the bumper. Bliss.
