This Fangio stained glass window is one of my earlier pieces. I did this artwork to commemorate Fangio being the featured “person” at the 1991 Monterey Historics. Tom Wheatcroft, of the Donington Collection, purchased the window at The Historics and it now resides at his museum in England.
The window depicts Fangio in the Lancia D-50 at Silverstone in 1956 when he won that year’s British Grand Prix over teammate de Portago. Fangio’s sideways driving style is evident, and being a circle track fan, I would have loved to have seen what he could have done in a competitive dirt Champ car.
