Aristotle Onassis sits behind the wheel of his 1955 Ford Thunderbird convertible at Nice Airport in 1956. With his hands on the large steering wheel, the neatly-dressed shipping magnate looks towards the passenger side of the car. The Thunderbird’s interior is detailed with a machine-turned aluminum dashboard and circular gauges. A rustic canopy casts linear shadows over the scene. In the background, other vehicles are visible, including a Ford Consul, an Austin A90 Atlantic, and a Renault 4CV.
