Destroyer USS Stickell. Monaco 1950.

In the calm waters of Monaco’s harbor, the American destroyer USS Stickell, its hull marked with the number "888", lies at anchor in 1950. This elevated view captures the warship with its visible gun turrets and funnels, surrounded by smaller yachts and boats. The densely built city, a mix of ornate and mid-century architecture, wraps around the waterfront and climbs the steep hillside, starkly contrasted by the rugged, sparsely vegetated mountain that towers over the urban landscape. A pier with a small lighthouse extends into the harbor on the right.
