Description :

In 1926, Ettore Bugatti sought to celebrate the fourth birthday of his youngest son, Roland, with a uniquely special gift. Inspired by an icon close to his heart, he decided to build an exquisite half-scale interpretation of the inimitable Bugatti Type 35 – the legendary vehicle that would go on to become the most successful racing car of all time – and marking the birth of the Bugatti Type 52. Also known as the ‘Baby’ Bugatti, it is now reinterpreted as a piece of art, a quintessentially special limited series of collectors’ sculptures infused with the vision of Ettore Bugatti himself, and realized by Bugatti’s first Pilote Officiel, Pierre-Henri Raphanel.
