Behind the scene

The Rolls-Royce Wraith, a name that echoes back to the original Rolls-Royce company's 1938 model, is a full-size ultra-luxury car or grand tourer. This masterpiece was designed to replace the earlier 2-door car model, the Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupé. The Wraith, built on the basis of the Rolls-Royce Ghost, is the fastest car made by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.

The design process of the Wraith is a meticulous and detailed endeavor. The body style is a two-door pillar-less coupe with suicide doors, where all side windows can roll down like in a convertible. This body style was popular in American cars during the 1950s and 1960s. The Wraith's design process is so secret that only two people at the Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood know the full resolution of the sequence.

The Wraith has been owned by discerning customers from the music, sports, and art worlds. One notable owner is Gwen Stefani, whose customisation of the Wraith reportedly set her back upwards of £244,000.

In the realm of cinema, the Wraith has made its mark in the James Bond film franchise. A 1958 model owned by head of Station 'T', Ali Kerim Bey, appeared in the 1963's "From Russia with Love". Over fifty years later, a 1948 model was used as a Spectre-owned limousine during the 2015 film "Spectre".

The evolution of the Wraith model has been remarkable. The Wraith Black Badge, a special edition of the Wraith, is performance-based. Its exterior features are painted black, including the Spirit of Ecstasy, and its interior consists of carbon fibre applications.

As for the photograph, it captures the essence of the Wraith's dynamic power and elegance. The artistic blur technique used gives a sense of motion, enhancing the perception of the Wraith's speed and agility. It's as if the viewer is witnessing the Wraith in action, a fleeting moment of automotive beauty captured in time. The photograph evokes a sense of awe and admiration for the Wraith's design and performance, making it a must-have piece for any car enthusiast or art collector.

The Rolls-Royce Wraith is not just a car; it's a testament to Rolls-Royce's commitment to excellence and innovation. This photograph beautifully encapsulates the Wraith's legacy, making it a valuable addition to any collection. Whether you're a car enthusiast, a James Bond fan, or an art collector, this photograph is a unique piece that tells a story of luxury, performance, and cinematic history.
