The glamorous
world of Maserati was celebrated at the opening of an
exclusive photographic exhibition, 'Egli Ci Ha Tante Stelle'
- 'There are so Many Stars' - in London last week.
The exhibition, staged at the Michael Hoppen Gallery in
Chelsea, illustrates the colourful history of this
prestigious, sporting marque through a series of superb
photographs, whose subjects range from the Grand Prix
victories won by Juan Manuel Fangio, to astronaut Walter
Schirra taking delivery of his Maserati Bora supercar in
1971. Over 30 evocative images are on display, all of them
selected by exhibition curator and design guru Stephen
Bayley.
