"Porsche 917 GULF – Le Mans 1971"
Original Acrylic on Canvas | 240 x 100 cm | 2024

By Allan Buch

Few machines have transcended the racetrack to become pure cultural icons. The Porsche 917 in its legendary GULF livery is one of them—bright blue and blazing orange, immortalized not just by its victories, but by Steve McQueen’s 1971 film Le Mans.
In this striking 240 x 100 cm original painting, Allan Buch captures the raw beauty and cinematic legacy of Car No. 20—the 917 as it roared across both tarmac and silver screen. Elongated and powerful in composition, the canvas echoes the speed and symmetry of the car itself, while Buch’s expressive brushwork and signature drips and textures inject a sense of motion, nostalgia, and visceral emotion.
The result is a tribute to motorsport history, to McQueen’s mythos, and to the artistry of the automobile. It is a statement piece—not only for what it depicts, but for how it’s portrayed: dramatic, elegant, and unforgettable.
For collectors, this is more than a painting. It’s a museum-worthy celebration of design, cinema, and speed—a must-have centrepiece for serious Porsche enthusiasts, motorsport art connoisseurs, or those curating spaces where legacy and lifestyle collide.
