Car art Contest Entry
Drawing on paper 11"x15" and selectively coloured. Used graphite pencils and sketchpen showing the streets of Kolkata where one can see the Ambassador Taxis in action.
The Hindustan Ambassador was an automobile manufactured by Hindustan Motors of India. It was in production from 1958 to 2014 with few improvements and changes over its production lifetime. The Ambassador was based on the Morris Oxford series III model, first made by Morris Motors Limited at Cowley, Oxford in the United Kingdom from 1956 to 1959.
Despite its British origins, the Ambassador is considered as a definitive Indian car and is fondly called the "king of Indian roads". The automobile was manufactured by Hindustan Motors at its plant near Kolkata, West Bengal. It is now used mostly as taxis! Since taxis needed to stand out, the colour yellow was chosen.
Enjoy!
