FB Alliney's "The Cross and the Snake" Collection for Alfa Romeo

Alfa Romeo's 100 years of history is riddled with some of the most beautiful works of art ever to grace the road. And now a selection of them have been turned into actual works of art in celebration of the stoic automaker's centenary.

The paintings have been created by Feredrico B. Alliney, an accomplished Hollywood artist known for visualizing the scenery in James Cameron's blockbuster film Avatar. Alliney has painted seven such pieces, each with a unique backdrop appropriate to the cars depicted, and each is available in a limited reproduction of 30 editions each. See them for yourself in the gallery below.
