N° 170, Barnard and Jacques Bonvalot on AC Aceca. Princess Grace and Prince Rainier in the background. Monte Carlo Rally 1959
The battered AC Aceca of Barnard and Jacques Bonvalot, bearing rally number 170, is presented at the conclusion of the 1959 Monte Carlo Rally. The car’s dented hood and twisted bumper attest to the grueling nature of the race. From an ornate balcony at the Prince's Palace, adorned with the Monegasque coat of arms, Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace observe the proceedings. The Princess, wearing a light-colored coat and sunglasses, sits beside the Prince among other dignitaries, while a crowd of spectators looks on.
