In Monte Carlo, 1953, Aristotle Onassis is seen before the ornate Belle Époque facade of the Hotel de Paris. His 1952 Bentley R-Type Continental, a sleek, light-colored fastback saloon by H.J. Mulliner with whitewall tires, is pulled up to the entrance. Under the hotel's grand awning, a small group of people congregates near a uniformed doorman, while the rear of a Volkswagen Beetle is visible in the foreground, evoking an atmosphere of mid-century European elegance.
