In a fusion of art, luxury, and the thrill of Formula 1, The Ritz-Carlton brand has unveiled a captivating series of travel posters, created by artist Louis-Nicolas Darbon. This collection celebrates the brand’s collaboration with the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team and features seven posters that pay homage to the global Grand Prix destinations of the 2022 season, including cities like Miami, Montreal, and Abu Dhabi. Enhancing the allure for Formula 1 fans, the series includes signed portraits of renowned drivers Sir Lewis Hamilton and George Russell.
Each city’s Grand Prix atmosphere is captured in an original canvas, available for purchase at $13,000 each, signed by notable figures Toto Wolff, Sir Lewis Hamilton, and George Russell. For wider accessibility, limited edition prints, with only 10 copies per poster, are also on offer for $3,000 each. The crowning jewels of the collection are the signed original portraits of the drivers, valued at $25,000 apiece.
Continuing its commitment to social responsibility, The Ritz-Carlton is channeling all proceeds from the sales to the Sutton Trust through its Community Footprints program. The Sutton Trust, a dedicated educational charity in the UK, is committed to improving social mobility and providing educational opportunities for underprivileged youth. This initiative aligns with the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team’s Accelerate 25 program, which strives for diversity and inclusivity within the team.
The travel poster series not only offers F1 enthusiasts a chance to own a piece of the sport’s artistry but also supports a noble cause, blending passion with purpose.
