About this photo
Steve McQueen the wheel of his Porsche 917 on the Circuit de la Sarthe
This iconic photograph captures Steve McQueen during the filming of *Le Mans* in 1971, behind the wheel of an authentic Porsche 917. Directed by Lee H. Katzin, this autobiographical film allowed the actor to live out his passion for auto racing, training for several months with the Porsche team before filming at the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit.
Produced by Lee H. Katzin and John Sturges, *Le Mans* grossed $9 million at the box office despite a budget of $7.5 million. This personal project by McQueen, a passionate motorsports enthusiast, stands alongside *Bullitt* and *The Great Escape* in his legendary filmography, cementing his status as an icon of authentic action cinema.
A truly exceptional piece that captures the meeting of a Hollywood legend and his passion for pure speed.
