A high-angle view captures the wedding procession of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly on a winding road in Monaco Ville, 1956. The couple travels in an open-top 1953 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith; the Prince is dressed in a formal military uniform, while the new Princess’s white wedding veil flows behind her. Flanked by a motorcycle escort, the car passes saluting officers, dense crowds of onlookers, and press photographers with large cameras. The bright sunlight casts distinct shadows, highlighting the pomp and public spectacle of the occasion.
