Manufactured by a British studio with works of art displayed at the most famous museum of its kind, Madame Tussauds, in London, the piece was officially presented on Friday, March 20th, at the Ayrton Senna Institute, in S\u00e3o Paulo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea comes from how important Ayrton Senna is to the world of motor sports and to the millions of Brazilians who admire his achievements. We thought it was crucial to get Senna\u2019s family involved in every aspect of the sculpture\u2019s production, since there\u2019s no one better than his own relatives to give input in the matter\u201d, said the Petropolis Museum curator, Renato Bomtempo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact that the family was there during the whole process of production made all the difference. This allowed the sculptor to capture every single detail of the driver\u2019s physiognomy\u201d, adds Bontempo, mentioning that it took eight months for the statue to be completed.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-17917 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.senna.com\/en\/?attachment_id=134'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.senna.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ezgif-frame-014-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>On behalf of the family, Bianca Senna, Branding Director of the Ayrton Senna Institute, received the piece and was visibly impressed with the work of the artists, who\u2019ve been perfecting this technique for more than ten years. \u201cThe final result is incredible; the whole family was really moved by seeing such a faithful likeness of Ayrton (Senna).
