Maserati shines at London luxury art fair

Italian luxury car maker Maserati is showcasing its handcrafted Quattroporte S in an unlikely setting: at the Masterpiece London art and antiques fair, which opened last week in a plush tent on the grounds of Chelsea’s Royal Hospital. Featuring among such fair highlights as a newly discovered pastel by Claude Monet and a pair of pearls once owned by France’s last empress is a metallic black version of the racy sedan. The brand-new version of a model originally designed in 1963, it has a shiny, bulbous bonnet and ranges in price from $128,300-153,800, depending on whether you opt for such extras as a 15-speaker surround-sound system.
