At Nice Airport in 1956, Aristotle Onassis sits in profile at the wheel of his 1955 Ford Thunderbird convertible. With the top down, the car’s interior is on display, showing its dashboard with circular gauges and a strip of machine-turned metal trim. The Thunderbird, with its distinctive whitewall tires, is parked under a woven-reed canopy as a hand reaches for the passenger-side door. In the background, a variety of other period automobiles, including a Ford Consul and an Austin A90 Atlantic, are visible.
