Stirling Moss, (78) Jaguar C-Type. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).

Stirling Moss pilots his number 16 Jaguar C-Type through a sunlit curve at the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, an event transformed that year into a race for sports cars. Captured from a high-angle viewpoint, the scene includes spectators observing from a balcony in the foreground, their view partially framed by a large palm tree. Below, the street circuit is lined with a decorative stone balustrade, with more onlookers gathered in the deep shadows cast by the strong sun.
