Earlier this year I photographed the Audi Spokane showroom in Spokane Valley as part of my Autonation series of projects. Popular with Audi and many other auto sales companies are vintage wall murals showcasing the automobiles of yesterday racing, driving, or just looking good parked. Audi has a storied history in Europe beginning in 1932 when four separate automobile manufacturers merged to form one company. August Horch was the Pioneer of the car company and named it after the Latin version of his name, Horch (or Hark) which is translated as Audi. The company gained fame in European auto races and went on to make some of the finest cars on the road today.
