I first saw this imagine at the Corbusier exhibition, curated at the Barbican in May 2009.
This picture really struck a cord in me. Here was Mercedes Benz using the backdrop of Le Corbusier’s Weissenhof House (1927), to demonstrate its modernity and it’s forward looking views on technology, materials and .. fashion. In todays age this staggeringly amazing shot, makes the car look like a thing of the past a relic, while Corusier’s Weissenhof House is still up there amongst the greats.. It just hasn’t dated.
An absolutely amazing timeless piece of architecture..
