Olympic Maritime (later offices of Aristotle Onassis, former Sporting Club, Avenue Monte-Carlo, later Avenue d'Ostende. Monaco 1953.

The former Sporting Club on Monaco's Avenue Monte-Carlo, photographed in 1953 after its conversion into the offices for Aristotle Onassis's Olympic Maritime. The grand building’s ornate facade features a rhythmic series of tall, arched windows, balconies with stone balustrades, and a distinctive domed section. In the background, a steep, tree-covered mountain rises, while several vintage cars, including a Citroën 2CV and a Renault 4CV, are parked along the avenue.
