Three Editions. One Legend.

Portrait of Sir Jackie Stewart, Race Against Dementia on his shirt

Born with Sir Jackie,
not around him.

Sir Jackie Stewart didn't just win races, he changed what it meant to be a champion. Three-time Formula One World Champion with 27 Grand Prix victories, "The Flying Scot" raced with a precision and intelligence that set him apart from his generation.

But his greatest legacy was fought off the track. In an era when drivers accepted death as the price of speed, Stewart refused and his relentless campaign for safety transformed motorsport forever, saving countless lives.

Elegant, principled, and fiercely modern: a champion measured not only by what he won, but by everything he changed.

He Defined It.

The eye behind the legend

For more than fifty years, Rainer W. Schlegelmilch, known in the paddock as RWS, has been one of the defining photographers of Formula 1. He shot his first race at the Nürburgring in 1962, then made speed, light and motion his art rather than mere documentation. His archive holds over 15,000 black-and-white photographs and nearly 600,000 colour slides, and in 2011 Bernie Ecclestone awarded him a permanent lifetime pass at Monza.

The seven photographs in this edition are his. For Frames of Legends, that is where the story starts.
