During the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Alberto Ascari pilots his Ferrari 125 (40) through a left-hand bend. Wearing a leather helmet and goggles, he is framed by the circuit's unique architecture. To the right, parked along a stone balustrade by the water, are other competitors, including Toulo de Graffenried in his Maserati 4CLT (52), marked with a Swiss cross. Crowds of spectators line the elevated terraces and staircases of the city to watch the race unfold.
