Citroën 2CV Stencil

This Citroën 2CV stencil celebrates one of the most iconic cars in France's automotive heritage. Captured here from a dynamic, slightly plunging angle, it displays all the softness of its rounded lines, its retro charm and its unique character. Far from being stuck in the past, this stylised version reveals a resolutely expressive 2CV, ready to find its place at the heart of a contemporary work of art.

Originally conceived as an economical utility vehicle, the 2CV went beyond its initial vocation to become a symbol of freedom, simplicity and ingenuity. With its sleek lines, ribbed bonnet, round raised headlights, independent wings and adventurous looks, it epitomised an era, a way of life and a philosophy. The version shown here is a tribute to this cult design.

The graphic treatment of the stencil accentuates the contrasts, plays on the textures of wear and tear and the full and loose lines, creating a visual effect that is both raw and accessible. The 2CV seems to have emerged from a mural, a city wall or a tableau vivant. It becomes artistic material, ready to be integrated into a work of art, a piece of customised furniture, a canvas or an urban fresco.

Far from being a folk cliché, this stencil gives the 2CV a modern, joyful, almost rebellious aura. It becomes a subject of expression, a vector of memory and visual emotion. It appeals as much to nostalgic fans as to contemporary artists looking for icons to hijack.

Can be used on a wide variety of substrates, this Citroën 2CV stencil is ideal for mural creations, graphic compositions, painting and street art projects. Thanks to its masterful detailing, it brings out the full personality of the car, without ever freezing its spirit.

Cette 2CV, revisitée par le pochoir, n’est pas seulement un objet ancien : elle devient une muse graphique, un clin d'œil au passé réinterprété par l’art urbain, un symbole de France et de créativité populaire.
