“Jaguar’s Triumphs at Le Mans” In Glass Artwork
Stained glass artist Stephen Bonesteel assemblies a striking image of Jaguar’s triumphs at Le Mans.
This stained glass window was commissioned by Kye Yeung, owner of European Motor Car Works in Costa Mesa, California. The window depicts the final lap of the 1988 24 Hours of Le Mans, where the winning Jaguar XJR-9LM of Jan Lammers, Johnny Dumfries and Andy Wallace led the 4th place sister car of Daly/Perkins/Cogan and the 16th place car of Sullivan/Jones/Cobb to the checkered flag. As this was Jaguar’s first Le Mans victory since 1957, the scene also depicts the Le Mans–winning D-type chasing the XJR’s in the background.
