Kleury.art - [XL MATTE PAPER] Industrial Blueprint 2.0: "Ferrari 458 Italia" by Kleury.art (1/5)

LOT DETAILS
Title of the work: Ferrari 458 Italia

Artist: Kleury.art
Edition: Limited edition of 5 copies
Dimensions: 70x50 cm (horizontal orientation)
Support: Fine Art EMA Paper (Enhanced Matte). The prestigious archival support guarantees a smooth, matte, dense, and glare-free surface. The ultra-mat finish of EMA paper enhances the intensity of Rosso Corsa, the precision of contours, the sharpness of technical lines, and the warm ivory tone of the background, ensuring flawless color rendering and museum-grade, intergenerational preservation.

Technique: Digital technical illustration in a Technical Blueprint Plate style, inspired by homologation drawings and style figures. The work employs a clean, geometric graphic language: solid color fields, inked clean contours, and soft shading that model the car’s fluid surfaces. The four orthogonal views of the car are accompanied by dimensional lines and captions in Italian (Artificial Intelligence used for proportional calculation of the orthogonal projections, alignment of dimensions and technical texts, and optimization for fine art printing).

Framing: The work is sold unframed. Shipped with maximum care in a reinforced professional protective tube.

Authenticity: Digital Kleury.art stamp present in the work at the bottom left; numbered digital certificate of authenticity, signed and paired with the EMA edition provided on request.

THE WORK
“Ferrari 458 Italia” is a dynamic, modern visual manifesto with extraordinary formal clarity, dedicated to the berlinetta that in 2009 redefined the concept of a mid-engine V8 from Maranello. Designed by Pininfarina and presented with a name that is already a statement of belonging, the 458 Italia brought to the road solutions born in Formula 1, from the dual-clutch gearbox to integrated steering-wheel controls, paired with a naturally aspirated V8 capable of turning up to 9000 rpm.

The piece adopts a horizontal format and a layout true to an archival technical drawing. In the upper left dominate the historic Cavallino Rampante shield and the title “Ferrari 458 Italia – V8 Aspirated / Berlinetta,” followed by the subtitle “2009 — Technical Studio.” On the right, the large outline-only number “458” emerges as a watermark on the ivory background.

At the heart of the composition are four views of the car in a deep Rosso Corsa, numbered and accompanied by millimetric dimension lines:

01 / Side View, with wheelbase (2650 mm) and length (4527 mm) dimensions, yielding the wedge-like profile with a low nose, sculpted side, stallion shield on the fender, and split-spoke wheels.

02 / Front View, with height dimension (1213 mm), highlighting the sharp headlights with LED daytime running lights, the central mouth with aerodynamic louvers, and the small Cavallino in the center.

03 / Rear View, with round taillights, Cavallino on the tail, the diffuser, and the three characteristic central exhausts.

04 / Top View, with width dimension (1937 mm), revealing the cockpit, the wraparound windshield line, and the engine bay with the V8 clearly visible beneath the transparent cover.

The lower section, divided into four columns, houses the complete technical sheet in Italian:

Engine: 90° V8 in a longitudinal rear-mid position, liquid-cooled, 4499 cm³ naturally aspirated, compression ratio 12.5:1.

Power and Transmission: 570 HP at 9000 rpm, maximum torque 540 Nm at 6000 rpm, 7-speed dual-clutch F1 transmission, rear-wheel drive.

Dimensions and Model: length 4527 mm, width 1937 mm, height 1213 mm, wheelbase 2650 mm, 2-seater berlinetta body, year of presentation 2009.

Technical: direct injection fuel system, dual-overhead camshaft with 4 valves per cylinder, dry-sump lubrication, carbon-ceramic brakes, Pininfarina design.

A red graphic stamp, “Progetto Privato – Studio Grafico Indipendente,” emphasizes the nature of the work as an independent artistic study.

ARTIST’S WORDS
“With ‘Ferrari 458 Italia’ I wanted to tell the moment when Maranello’s V8 berlinetta became something new: more fluid, more technological, closer than ever to Formula 1, but without losing the purity of a naturally aspirated engine that screams to nine thousand RPM. After dedicating a plate to the 458 Speciale, I felt the need to return to the origin of this family and study it with a different language, that of orthogonal projections. The top view is perhaps my favorite: it shows the V8 beneath the transparent cover like a jewel in a display case, and it reveals how every surface has been shaped by the air. Compared to the plates dedicated to vintage Ferraris, here I sought tauter surfaces and softer reflections to convey the contemporary character of the car. The biggest challenge was translating such complex, organic forms into a graphic style made of clean contours and bold filled areas. I chose the EMA Fine Art paper because its totally matte finish yields a rich, velvety red with no reflections, and makes the reading of the dimensions as sharp as on an archival document. I hope this plate brings into spaces the voice of a naturally aspirated V8 hitting the limiter, the worship of engineering perfection, and the timeless charm of the Cavallino Rampante.”
