Trafic jam. Border to Italy. Menton 1955.
A high-angle view captures a traffic jam of vintage automobiles on the coastal road at the Italian border in Menton, 1955. A long queue of cars, including Citroën Traction Avants, lines the scenic route, which runs alongside a seaside promenade and a stone sea wall. In the background, across the bay, the densely packed old town sits on a hillside overlooking the water, its skyline marked by a prominent church spire.
