Bugatti Type 57 Atalante

Beauty is not just skin deep: Bugatti has always been renowned both for the level of detail of engineering in its automobiles, and for the artistic way in which their designs are executed. The beautiful Bugatti Type 57 Atalante illustrated by Charles Avalon was effectively the marque’s last production model, and perhaps the best. With its streamlined styling, low-slung chassis and optional supercharged engine, the Type 57 Atalante is one of the most desirable Bugattis ever made. Designed by Ettore’s son, Jean Bugatti, as a two-seater sports coupe, a two-tone paint scheme accentuates the ‘French curve’ on the car’s flanks.
