Rolls-Royce cars are distinguished not just by their engineering but also by the iconic hood ornament known as the ‘Spirit of Ecstasy.’ This Rolls Royce bonnet-inspired statue — depicting a woman with flowing garments that appear to give her wings as she leans forward — is a global symbol of luxury and perfection.

The origin of an icon

The Spirit of Ecstasy had signified luxury since 1905, when it was first commissioned by Lord Montagu as a bespoke sculpture for his Rolls-Royce. Wanting his car to stand out, he asked sculptor Charles Sykes to create ‘The Whisper,’ a delicate figure of a woman with her finger to her lips, standing on one foot, her gown billowing behind her. Recognizing the impact of this unique adornment, Rolls-Royce later commissioned Sykes to design a consistent statue for every vehicle, which evolved into today’s Spirit of Ecstasy.
