A two-tone Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith, a Limousine by James Young, leads a procession of vehicles at the Concours d’Elégance Automobile in Cannes, 1951. The car, owned by Mrs. N. Cook, displays race number "77" on its windshield and a painted mural on its dark lower body. It was awarded the prestigious Aga Khan Cup, while Mrs. Cook and Mrs. Osborne also received the Grand Prix d'Honneur for elegance. Spectators watch from behind a wooden fence along the seaside promenade, an ornate structure with repeating arches and latticework.
