The Shah of Persia and Soraya. Nice 1957. Car: Mercedes-Benz 300 SL

In Nice, 1957, the Shah of Persia and Empress Soraya are pictured on a sunny day beside their light blue Mercedes-Benz 300 SL convertible. Soraya wears a chic white ensemble with a sailor-style collar and matching pillbox hat. The Shah, in a dark suit and sunglasses, walks towards the camera. The setting, suggested by industrial equipment and a partial "AERO" sign, appears to be an airfield, which contrasts with the Mediterranean landscape of the Côte d'Azur visible in the distance under a clear, bright sky.
