Luigi Stagnoli, (90) Ferrari 225S. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).

At the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, transformed for the year into a sports car race, Luigi Stagnoli steers his No. 90 Ferrari 225S through a sun-drenched, tight right-hand corner. Wearing a light-colored helmet and goggles, he navigates the turn as spectators watch from behind decorative posts. The motion of the curvaceous vehicle is evident in the slight blur of its wheels and the tire marks etched onto the asphalt. Bright sunlight creates strong contrasts and deep shadows across the scene.
