The Bristol Buccaneer

If you’ve received your copy of Mr Bristol, you’re sure to have noticed Loustal’s magnificent rendition of the Bristol Buccaneer on page 40. We can’t show it here for copyright reasons, but if you’ve seen the image, please do let us know what you think. Is this the car that would have saved Bristol Cars? The Buccaneer, for those of you who are not aware of it, was developed in the 1990s and should have brought Bristol firmly into the 21st century. Loustal’s painting was based on photographs of the scale model.

For more Loustal, have a look at some of the covers he made for The New Yorker.
