For a point, please tell me who penned this drawing and what it purports to depict:

(Hint: It is NOT intended to depict a giant roller skate.)

All correct! 48-hour lock for you to identify the artist.

This has been unlocked for some time. At least half of the work has been done! Anyone care to take a swing for the point before I throw it to the pros?

Quick point for the Pros!

And an additional point to anyone who provides a photograph of the puzzle car as it appears in the drawing!

It is an all-electric Lohner-Porsche race car from 1905, equipped with two 30 hp engines. The long hood contains the batteries. I think it is a real photograph. An article from the Allgemeine Automobil Zeitung below:

Well, you get a point for the photo and additional information!

The puzzle image is a drawing by a known artist (based on the photo you posted). A point is still available for identifying the artist.

Original photo and unaltered drawing:
