Monaco by night. Monaco 1953.

A sweeping, high-angle nighttime view captures Monaco in 1953, its myriad lights sparkling against the deep black of the sea. The city nestles along a curved coastline, with a prominent headland—home to the old town—jutting into the water above the intensely lit harbor. The city's lights sprawl up the steep slopes of the surrounding hills, while in the foreground, an illuminated road with sharp hairpin turns snakes its way down the dark hillside.
