Black Beauties

René Staud, the grand seignior of automotive photography, has published a new illustrated book. In his coffee-table book "Black Beauties", the automotive photographer devotes himself entirely to the colour black. In this extraordinarily illustrated book, Staud takes car lovers on a journey through time and presents the top models of the world's greatest sports car brands. From the legendary Alfa Romeo 8C from the 1930s to the declared goddess Citroën DS to the fastest open-top series sports car, the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse, the star photographer demonstrates the aesthetics that the colour black lends a car.
