British artist Helen Amy Murray took inspiratio­n from Rolls-royce’s iconic emblem, Spirit of Ecstasy, which has graced the prow of every Rolls-royce car since 1911. Originally based on Charles Sykes’ bronze statue The Whisper, Murray worked in silk appliqué to create a subtly sculpted linear piece, which merely hints at the female form through the delicate line of the neck and barely discernibl­e wing.

Bowling the world over with vehicle forms of immense opulence, The Gallery once again positions Rolls-royce as one of the most innovative luxury car brands in the world.
