Gianni Agnelli and his Bentley. Since his bad accident with his Ferrari in 1952, he had to walk with a stick. Beaulieu 1954.

On a bustling, cobblestoned pier in Beaulieu in 1954, Gianni Agnelli stands beside his 1952 Bentley R-Type Continental. He had used a walking stick since a car accident two years prior. The passenger door of the sleek H.J. Mulliner fastback is open, near a woman with a headscarf and shorts. Other cars—including a Citroën Traction Avant and a Studebaker Champion convertible—line the quayside, which is filled with moored motor yachts and cabin cruisers against a backdrop of a steep, tree-covered hillside.
