EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early days of motoring and experience the thrill of the Paris-Madrid Race of 1903. This historic photograph showcases the route of this groundbreaking automobile race, which took place from February 14 to 19, 1903. The Paris-Madrid Race was the longest and most challenging automobile race of its time, covering a distance of approximately 1,100 kilometers (683 miles) from Paris, France, to Madrid, Spain. The intricate map in this print illustrates the race route, which began in Paris and headed southwest through Bordeaux, Bayonne, and Biarritz in France. The racers then crossed the Bay of Biscay via a ferry, continuing their journey through the Spanish towns of San Sebastian, Bilbao, and Burgos before reaching the finish line in Madrid. This daring race was a significant milestone in the history of motor car racing. It demonstrated the capabilities of early automobiles and the determination of their drivers, who faced numerous challenges, including harsh weather conditions, rough roads, and mechanical issues. The Paris-Madrid Race paved the way for future long-distance races and showcased the growing popularity of automobiles in Europe during the early 1900s. This print is an essential addition to any collection focused on early motoring history, automobile racing, or vintage maps. Relive the excitement and adventure of the Paris-Madrid Race of 1903 and explore the rich history of automobile transportation in Europe during the early 1900s.
