At Cannes Airport in 1954, La Môme Moineau, a former flower seller known as “the richest woman of the Côte d'Azur”, stands with her husband, Dominican shipping millionaire Mr. Benítez-Rexach. Dressed in a dark, captain-style uniform, she holds the open door of their 1948 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith Drophead Coupé by Franay. While Mr. Benítez-Rexach maintains a serious expression in his double-breasted suit, La Môme Moineau glances upward with an animated look. The bright sunlight casts distinct shadows of the couple and the car on the gravel.
