“Master of Speed” is not simply a sculpture — it is a sensation. A moment suspended between memory and acceleration, between childhood dream and mechanical poetry.
Lieven d’Haese, born into a renowned Belgian family of sculptors and himself a passionate admirer of vintage racing cars, creates here a work that transcends the object. This is not a car — it is the idea of speed itself. The body dissolves into motion, the wheels vanish, the front stretches forward as if pulled by air, and even the driver’s legs seem absorbed by velocity. The sculpture becomes wind, becomes trajectory, becomes time.
What makes this piece extraordinary is its uniqueness. Each “Master of Speed” is entirely sculpted in wax without mould — a complete creation, one of a kind in its edition. No repetition, no duplication. Every piece carries its own energy, its own movement, its own soul. This is why collectors around the world, especially those with a deep passion for cars, have already acquired the series — and all others are now sold out.
There is something deeply emotional in this work. It resonates with the memory of childhood — of toy cars, of imagined races, of dreams of speed and freedom. But here, that memory is elevated into art. It becomes refined, timeless, and profoundly expressive.
The sculpture feels like it is about to take off — not just on the road, but into the sky, into a tunnel of time, into a dream space where speed is no longer mechanical, but almost spiritual.
Collectors acquire this work because it speaks directly to their passion — not only for cars, but for movement, innovation, and the poetry of velocity. It is a piece that connects emotion and design, memory and mastery.
Placement – A living vision
Imagine this sculpture placed on a refined console, in a minimalist interior. The wood base grounding it, while the form itself seems to float.
Or in a private office, where it becomes a symbol of drive, ambition, and forward motion.
Or even in a collector’s space dedicated to automobiles — where this piece stands apart, not as an object, but as the essence of speed itself.
With the right lighting, the shadows will extend its movement further — as if the car continues beyond its physical form.
“Master of Speed” is not about a car. It is about the dream of speed — captured forever, in bronze.
