The Begum Aga Khan. Nice 1951. Car: 1950 Citroën Traction Avant 11BL Légère

In Nice, 1951, the Begum Aga Khan smiles warmly, her hand resting on the open door of a 1950 Citroën Traction Avant 11BL Légère. Dressed in a heavy overcoat with wide lapels, she is accessorized with a prominent charm bracelet. Through the car’s windshield, the silhouette of a passenger wearing what appears to be a nun's wimple is visible. In the background, a manicured hedge stands before an ornate iron gate.
