Official technical drawing DS (Pallas) on a 70 by 50 cm board with 2 cm depth, authentic original and in as-new condition.
Description from the seller
Brief Description:
This work is a refined tribute to French cutting-edge engineering, presenting the complete technical design of the legendary 1970 Citroën DS. Created on a vintage-feeling board that simulates the original documents of the "Citroën Technical Service", the drawing captures the aerodynamic and futuristic silhouette that earned the car the nickname "Shark".
The layout unfolds through canonical orthogonal projections, highlighting the DS's unique proportions: the front track wider than the rear and the sloped snout with the characteristic cladded headlights. Two fundamental details enrich the scheme: Section A-A, which illustrates the heart of Citroën's comfort — the hydropneumatic suspension — and Section B-B, dedicated to the DS 21 engine.
Enriched with quality-control stamps, autograph signatures from designers such as P. Boulanger and A. Bianchi, and precise millimetric measurements, the document transcends the function of a manual to become a piece of industrial art. The Celestial Shark celebrates the moment when the automobile ceased to be merely a means of transport and became an timeless icon of design and innovation.
