AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Brief Description:
This work is a refined tribute to French avant-garde engineering, presenting the complete technical design of the legendary 1970 Citroën DS. Created on an era-flavored 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: a front track wider than the rear and the sloped nose with the characteristic clipped headlights. Two key details adorn the scheme: Section A-A, which illustrates the heart of Citroën comfort — the hydropneumatic suspension — and Section B-B, dedicated to the DS 21 engine.

Enriched with quality control stamps, autograph signatures of 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 icon of timeless design and innovation.
