Toulo de Graffenried, (52) pushes his Maserati 4CLT/48. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.

On the waterside promenade of the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Toulo de Graffenried leaps into the open cockpit of his Maserati 4CLT/48. Mechanics in period overalls strain to push-start the number 52 car, which features a long, louvered bonnet and a Swiss cross emblem. The driver, wearing a soft helmet and goggles, is captured mid-action as the race gets underway. Tire marks on the pavement and an onlooker in a suit leaning against another car complete the dynamic scene.
