Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).

Sheltering from the sun with a large umbrella, Luigi Stagnoli sits in the open cockpit of his Ferrari 225 S Spider Vignale (No. 90). He is positioned in a white-painted starting box for the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, which that year was transformed into a race for sports cars. The asphalt track is lined with hay bales, behind which spectators watch the proceedings. In the background, more onlookers fill the balconies of trackside buildings, from one of which hangs a large French flag, as an official observes the scene.
