Fire drill on the Place du Palais. Monaco 1951
On Monaco’s Place du Palais in 1951, firefighters in dark coats and metallic helmets perform a public drill. Gathered on the steps of the palace, whose facade is decorated with garlands and tricolor flags, they hold a large life net. A long ladder is propped against an upper window, while calm onlookers in suits and dresses watch the demonstration from balconies and through open louvered shutters. A fire hose lies uncoiled on the ground nearby.
