Porsche 917K - An Icon in the Shadows

€596,00

PREMIUM PHOTOGRAPHY: QUENTIN MARTINEZ

Dominant, feared, and immortal. This is not just a race car; this is the legendary Porsche 917K in its iconic Gulf livery. Captured in a moment of quiet intensity, it waits in the darkness, a predator resting before the hunt.

The dramatic composition uses shadow to conceal and light to reveal. The car’s singular headlight pierces the gloom, illuminating the unmistakable blue and orange lines. Framed by stacks of waiting tires, the deep shadows emphasize the car’s low, aggressive stance. This is collector-grade wall art for those who understand the brutal legacy of the 917: the icon that dominated Le Mans.

Production & Quality

Offered in two large formats: Collector’s Piece (approx. 100 cm wide) and Statement Piece (approx. 140 cm wide). Height varies by artwork — please refer to the product images for the exact size.
Printed on a 3 mm aluminum panel, finished either on white base or brushed aluminum, depending on what best elevates the image.
These are designed to be lived with as statement works, not posters. For large formats, we recommend leaning the piece for stability. If you choose to wall-mount, please use professional hardware suitable for the weight and surface.

Curated by Still Motion

It wasn't just fast, it was brutal. A 12-cylinder monument to raw, analogue power wrapped in the most beautiful lines.

The Legend of "Kurzheck"

The Porsche 917K ("Kurzheck" or "short-tail") was Porsche's definitive answer to its endurance racing ambitions. After a difficult debut, it was re-engineered to become one of the most dominant racing prototypes of all time, securing Porsche's first-ever overall wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970 and 1971. The iconic Gulf livery, synonymous with the JW Automotive Engineering team, cemented the 917K not just as a technical marvel of its era—with its flat-12 engine and lightweight construction—but as a global cultural icon. This image captures the car's quiet menace, a reminder of the relentless power that rewrote motorsports history.

MATERIALS

Why We Choose Aluminum

We choose aluminum for a simple reason: a machine born of metal deserves to live on in metal, preserving the very soul of its creation—the cold, raw, beautiful material from which it was forged.
A 3 mm aluminum panel keeps that soul intact: sharp lines, deep colour, and a surface built for real spaces.

Vibrant & Luminous

Colours stay incredibly vivid, with a subtle metallic sheen that makes every detail stand out.

Built to Last

Archival print on a rigid 3 mm panel, highly resistant to fading and easy to care for over time.

Modern & Frameless

A clean, frameless surface with slim edges — perfect leaned on a sideboard or mounted with spacers.

MAINTENANCE TIPS

CARING FOR YOUR ALUMINUM PRINT

Aluminum panels were first developed for demanding outdoor use, then adopted for high-end photography and art prints. When handled with care and kept away from harsh chemicals and extreme sunlight, they are made to last for decades.
To keep your Still Motion piece at its best, dust it occasionally with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid glass cleaners, abrasive sponges, and direct sunlight or very humid spaces for long periods.
