The image, now a historical treasure, was once proudly displayed at the Michelin Building in Fulham Road, London. The Ardennes Belges was a significant early motor racing event, attracting competitors from across Europe. The Heath-Panhard team, represented by the sleek and powerful automobile in the foreground, had braved the challenging roads of the Ardennes Forest, demonstrating unyielding determination and teamwork. The innovative use of pneumatic, inflated rubber tires, as seen on the Heath-Panhard car, revolutionized the automobile industry.

Their success showcased the potential of the emerging automobile industry and the thrill of competition that would soon captivate the world. This stunning tile picture, with its intricate detail and vibrant colors, transports us back to a time when the spirit of innovation, speed, and determination defined the early days of the automobile era. A true testament to the allure of motor racing and the indelible mark it left on the 20th century.
