Course on a a model for driver's education. Royal Palace, Monaco 1954

In a training session at the Royal Palace of Monaco in 1954, an instructor in a formal uniform explains the mechanics of a vehicle. He gestures with a long rod toward a cutaway teaching model, its chassis and engine exposed for the five men gathered around. Designed for instruction, the model also features sectioned drum brakes, revealing their internal mechanisms. In the background, a rack of heavy weapons stands against the wall, placing the driver's education course within a gendarmerie or military context.
