Louis Chiron, (48) Maserati 4CLT, behind him Prince Bira, (50) Maserati 4CLT. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.

At the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Louis Chiron pilots his number 48 Maserati 4CLT through a turn on the stone-paved street circuit. Further down the track, Prince Bira follows in his number 50 Maserati. The course runs alongside the harbor, separated from the water by a minimal barrier of hay bales and a simple railing. Spectators crowd against a stone wall, remarkably close to the action, their presence underscoring the raw and dangerous atmosphere of this era of motorsport.
