Sir Winston Churchill, departure at Nice Airport 1955.

Sir Winston Churchill pauses in the open doorway of an "Elizabethan" class aircraft at Nice Airport in 1955. Dressed in a dark, double-breasted pinstripe suit, the former Prime Minister offers a slight smile as he steadies himself on a railing. The polished metal fuselage, with its distinct rows of rivets, reflects distorted images of onlookers. In the lower-left corner, another man can be seen looking up at Churchill before his departure.
