Concours d’Elégance Automobile. Prix d'Honneur, with Comtesse de Menou who won "Prix de la plus belle toilette du printemps" (most beautiful sporting dress). Bristol Type 402 Drophead Coupé. Cannes 28.3.1951.

At the Concours d’Elégance Automobile in Cannes, Comtesse de Menou celebrates a dual triumph. Awarded the "Prix de la plus belle toilette du printemps" (most beautiful sporting dress), she stands smiling with a large bouquet beside a Bristol Type 402 Drophead Coupé. The car itself, distinguished by a sign on its grille, received the "Prix d'Honneur". The event is pictured on a boardwalk before an audience and fluttering French flags, 28 March 1951.
