Prince Rainier and Philippe Etancelin, (14) Talbot Lago T26C. Monaco Grand Prix 1950.

At the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, Prince Rainier, formally attired in a dark, double-breasted suit and sunglasses, warmly shakes hands with driver Philippe Etancelin. The smiling French driver is seen in profile, wearing his light-colored racing uniform with a soft cap and goggles pushed onto his forehead. In the background, spectators watch the exchange from a balcony, while hay bales line the street, forming a temporary barrier for the circuit.
