The coolant is boiling. Peter Ustinov with other participants of the PEN Congress, Nice 1952. Car: 1934-44 Mercedes-Benz 540 K Cabriolet A

On a sunlit street in Nice in 1952, the boiling coolant of a Mercedes-Benz 540 K Cabriolet A brings a journey to a halt. Peter Ustinov, in town for the PEN Congress, peers intently at the front of the magnificent vintage convertible. He is joined by other participants and two curious young boys, who gather around the light-colored car. The impromptu scene unfolds before storefronts advertising shoes and wine, with the bright midday sun casting strong shadows.
