Narriman Sadek, former Queen of Egypt, sits at the wheel of a gleaming 1955 Cadillac Series 62 convertible in Monte Carlo. Known as the "Cinderella of the Nile" after her marriage to King Farouk, she offers a slight smile from behind dark sunglasses. The car, with its prominent chrome grille, whitewall tires, and Swiss license plate, is parked on a sunlit paved area before a grand hillside building, its distinct shadow cast on the ground.
