This ceramic tile image from the Michelin Building in Fulham Road, London, immortalizes the thrilling moment when Louis Naudin triumphantly crossed the finish line to win the Coupe de Voiturettes race on October 28, 1907. Naudin's Sizaire-Naudin automobile, a marvel of 19th-century engineering, was propelled forward by the latest innovation in transportation technology: pneumatic, inflated tires from Michelin. The Coupe de Voiturettes was a prestigious motor racing event, and Naudin's victory was a testament to the power, speed, and reliability of the Sizaire-Naudin vehicle. The image captures the sense of urgency and determination that defined the early days of automobile racing, as well as the importance of teamwork and collaboration, with the Michelin team providing the crucial technological edge that helped Naudin claim victory. The tile's intricate design showcases the sleek lines and elegant curves of the Sizaire-Naudin, as well as the dynamic movement and energy of the race itself. The use of ceramic adds a tactile and historical dimension to the image, transporting us back to a time when the automobile was a new and exciting frontier. The image also highlights the significance of Michelin in the early history of the automobile industry, as pioneers in the development and production of pneumatic tires. This tile is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the thrill of competition, the spirit of innovation, and the enduring allure of the open road.
