Sir Winston Churchill, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, sits in the passenger seat of a 1948/49 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith at Nice Airport in 1959. Also in the car are Lord Beaverbrook, Emery Reves (the vehicle's owner and Churchill’s publisher), and Reves' wife, Wendy Russell. The automobile's glossy surface creates a complex, layered image, capturing reflections of the airport scene—including an airplane wing—and the photographer, along with the passengers inside and the sunlit landscape seen through the windows.
