Le Rocher, Monaco-Ville, seen from the Jardins Exotiques, 1951.
From the high vantage point of the Jardins Exotiques, this 1951 photograph captures Monaco-Ville built upon the rocky promontory of Le Rocher. The historic fortified city juts into a calm, expansive sea, its dense cluster of buildings dominated by the Prince's Palace on the right side of the headland. Fortification walls are visible along the steep cliffs dropping to the water. In the foreground, leafy branches frame the scene, while a glimpse of the harbor can be seen below and to the left.
