Black on pale gravel in front of the portal's dark wooden door: a 1968 Ford Mustang stands outside Schloss Engers as if it had always belonged there.
It carries the typical features of its model year: a three spoke steering wheel, offset exterior mirrors and a C stripe along the side. A V8 works beneath the bonnet. In 1968 the range included a 302 cubic inch engine for the first time, the engine that finally made the Mustang a muscle car icon.
The Rococo Schloss Engers was built between 1759 and 1762 to plans by Johannes Seiz, a pupil of Balthasar Neumann, for the Trier Elector Johann Philipp von Walderdorff.
The series alternates between distance and detail. First the vehicle appears in front of the Baroque façade, followed by headlights, sequential indicators and chrome trim. These details break the whole into its components before the final view brings car and architecture together again.
