The cars and chauffeurs of Prince Rainier line up in the sunlit main courtyard of the palace in Monaco-Ville, 1954. Captured from a high angle, the formal scene is set against the building’s ornate facade with its grand arches and faded frescoes. From left, the uniformed drivers and their vehicles are: Mr. Louche with a 1953 Ford Vedette; Mr. Benoit and a 1950 Lincoln Cosmopolitan; Mr. Raimondo beside a Mercedes-Benz 300 Limousine; and Mr. Pogliano with a Lancia Aurelia Berlina. Long, sharp shadows stretch across the paved ground.
