"NAME OF THE CAR" -"LADY ROXANA ROSALINDA DE MARQUESA ZIV" THIS 1 OF 1 ROLLS ROYCE IS OFTEN REFERRED TO AS A "ROMERO BRITTO" ROLLS BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUE ARTISTIC PAINT SCHEME ON THE CAR. THIS PIECE WAS HAND PAINTED BY INTERNATIONAL KNOWN ARTIST "MARCIE ZIV" WHICH SHARES SIMILAR STYLE OF ART AS OF THE BIGGEST NAME IN THE BUSSINESS "ROMERO BRITTO" BRITTO'S AND ZIV'S PAINTINGS ARE WELL KNOWN ALL AROUND THE WORLD, THEIR STYLE IS BASED ON "POP ART" "GRAFFITI" AND "CUBISM' Cubism was a 20th century avant-garde art movement, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture. In cubist artworks, objects are broken up, analyzed, and re-assembled in an abstracted form—instead of depicting objects from one viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. Often the surfaces intersect at seemingly random angles, removing a coherent sense of depth. The background and object planes interpenetrate one another to create the shallow ambiguous space, one of cubism's distinct characteristics. FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DON'T KNOW ROMERO BRITTO HERE IS A BRIEF DESCRIPTION : Romero Britto (Recife, 6 October 1963) is a Brazilian Neo-pop artist, painter, serigrapher, and sculptor. He combines elements of cubism, pop art and graffiti painting in his work. Britto has lived in Miami, Florida since 1989. Shortly after Britto arrived in the United States, Michel Roux, founder of Absolut Vodka's Absolut Art Ad Campaign, happened by Britto's first studio in Coconut Grove, Florida. Roux quickly asked Britto to reinterpret the famous bottle, which would be published and seen by millions. Consistently challenging himself, Britto has completed other corporate works for Movado, Disney, Enrico Coveri, Pepsi, the United Nations, BMW and Royal Caribbean Cruises.[1] Britto has one main art gallery in Miami, on South Beach on Lincoln Road. ARTIST AND SCULPTUR MARCIE ZIV PERFORMED A 1 OF KIND JOB BY PAINTING THIS ROLLS ROYCE BY HAND! HERE IS SOME BACKGROUND ON MARCIE ZIV :Marcie Ziv’s striking pieces are characterized by enigmatic, bold color and pattern designs; while each work is created using recognizable forms, they are then “fine tuned,” and elevated, by the addition of semi-abstract “inner compositions.” The intensity, brightness, and saturation of color in her art generates a palpable excitement for the essence of life, which, not just compelling, is also incredibly inspiring. Ziv’s love for animals is evident, as she incorporates and illustrates them often, working in colors and tones that clearly represent the beings in their natural habitats. MARCIE ZIV IS AN ARTIST AND SCULPTURE KNOWN LOCALLY IN THE UNITED STATES AND ALSO WELL KNOWN IN EUROPE AND OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD. IT TOOK ABOUT 3 MONTHS TO STRIP THE OLD PAINT OFF AND THEN HAND PAINT THIS VEHICLE WITH A BRUSH PLUS MANY MANY HOURS OF ART WORK AND THEN FINALLY SPRAY IT WITH CLEAR AND GLOSS. THIS CAR IS KNOWN INTERNATIONALLY ALL AROUND THE GLOBE BECAUSE IT'S BEEN FEATURED IN MANY PRESTIGIOUS MAGAZINES LIKE THE FRENCH "ELLE" MAGAZINE WHICH IS THE # 1 FASHION MAGAZINE IN THE WORLD. It is now the world’s largest fashion magazine, with 42 international editions in over 60 countries.[2] Technologically speaking, the Elle brand is a global network encompassing over 20 websites. Subscriptions account for 73 percent of readers. With the remaining 27 percent purchasing single issues, Elle is the only fashion magazine to have increased its newsstand sales in the past five years, most notably with an 18 percent increase in the first half of 2006. There are 27 Elle websites globally, which collectively attract over 1 million visitors and 26 million page views per month[3] Elle reaches over 4.8 million readers. The vast majority (82 percent) of Elle's audience are women between the ages of 18 and 49. Elle readers have a median age of 34.7 years.[2] Forty percent of readers are single, and the median household income is $69,973.[4] "Our readers are young enough to think about life as an adventure and old enough to have the means to live it," said Robbie Myers, editor in chief.[5] Elle owes its graphic signature to Art director Peter Knapp THIS VEHICLE WAS SELECTED BY THIS MAGAZINE TO BE IN THEIR ARTICLES!!

PLEASE BE SERIOUS WITH YOUR OFFERS THIS IS A VERY UNIQUE CAR WHICH IS NOT PERFECT BUT IS VERY RARE AND WILL ONLY INCREASE IN VALUE. THE CAR IS NOT PERFECT IF IT WAS IT WOULD HAVE A HIGHER PRICE!! IT WAS RESTORED IN 2005 AND AT THAT TIME IT RECIEVED THE PAINT JOB, LOOKS LIKE IF ALL THE GLASS WAS REPLACED BECAUSE IT LOOKS BRAND NEW WITH NO SCRATCHES.THE CHROME LOOKS LIKE IF THEY RECHROMED OR ADDED NEW CHROME. ALL THE WINDOWS WORK AS WELL AS THE LOCKS, THE A-C IS ICE COLD BUT TURNS ON AND OFF FOR SOME REASON, THE AM- FM STEREO WORKS FINE. THE HEADLINER IS NEW, THE LEATHER SEATS NEED TO BE DYED BECAUSE THEY'RE FADED A LITTLE. THE PAINT STILL LOOKS VERY NICE WITH SOME MINOR SCRATCHES THAT CAN BE FIXED EASILY. THE CAR IS NOT A PROJECT BUT DOES NEED YOUR FINAL TOUCHES TO MAKE IT PERFECT. THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION ARE GOOD BUT I'M SURE WILL NEED FLUIDS CHANGED AND TUNE UP.
