Anyone lucky enough to have had the chance to venture into a
ione place where designs and models bearing witness to years and
e years of work are carefully and lovingly stored away will be
i ad familiar with the nervous thrill of discovery that this experience
lori brings. The same emotion is evoked by this particular section
ra, of the Aste Bolaffi sale, where we are able to appreciate how
della various elements (sketches, carefully calculated technical
di drawings, with structural and mechanical dimensions, style
odelli ideas and accurate color illustrations) together serve to evoke
,a the effect that a future car will arouse. They are elements that
fani speak a special language, one that conveys vision and the
value of vision. This vision then takes on a material form, being
i translated into physical style models, in metal, resin or plaster,
che i that, as in the case of the famous Miura, even go so far as to
ano simulate hood and door opening and closing systems. These
models are meant to demonstrate the validity of the idea that is
represented in the front, back, side and plan drawings. We are
talking about what the leading coachbuilders, Bertone first and
foremost, called blueprints.
