High Quality Black Porsche 911 Turbo (930) Poster

Description

This Porsche 911 Turbo 930 poster is a drawing rather than a photograph: a black car in flat side profile on an empty ground, whale tail squared off at the back, arches pushed out over the rear wheels.

An illustration can do something a photograph cannot, which is remove everything that is not the shape. No reflections, no road, no weather and no context, so the proportions have nowhere to hide. On a 930 that is a fair test, because the car is almost entirely proportion: a short nose, a long tail and a spoiler that exists for a reason rather than for decoration.

Why a Porsche 911 Turbo 930 poster suits a flat drawing

Flat artwork on a plain ground is the easiest thing in this catalogue to place, because it brings its own negative space and does not fight whatever is already on the wall. It works over a desk, in a hallway, or as one of a pair. It is also the piece here that people most often buy twice, in different sizes, for two rooms.

What the whale tail was for

The rear wing on the first production 911 Turbo was aerodynamic before it was stylistic: it added downforce over a rear-engined car that needed it and housed the intercooler on later cars. The model, launched for the 1975 model year, is documented as the Porsche 930.
