Original 1952 Car Design Drawing by Gio Ponti for Touring Carrozzeria, Milan A rare fusion of automotive innovation and Italian design mastery, this original 1952 concept drawing was created by the legendary architect and designer Gio Ponti for Touring Carrozzeria, Milan’s famed coachbuilder. Executed with Ponti’s unmistakable precision and elegance, the drawing captures the streamlined optimism of postwar Italian motoring—where aerodynamic curves met artisanal craftsmanship. More than a technical rendering, it is a piece of design history, reflecting Ponti’s ability to translate architectural principles into automotive form. Archival-worthy and museum-grade, this work offers collectors a unique bridge between two worlds: mid-century modern design and the golden age of Italian coachbuilding. Medium: Ink and pencil on paper Dimensions: 30 x 21 cm Provenance: the estate of Gio Ponti A similar example pictured on page 167 of Gio Ponti: The Complete Work by Lisa Ponti. Condition: good vintage condition with minimal signs of handling Important drawing by Gio Ponti of the Diamante line for Touring Carrozzeria Milan.
