Somerset Maugham and Peter Ustinov. PEN-Congress, Nice 1952. Car: Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet A

During the 1952 PEN-Congress in Nice, Somerset Maugham sits in the driver's seat of a Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet A, his mouth open as if in animated conversation. Behind the car, Peter Ustinov stands among a group of onlookers before a wall covered with posters, including one for the 1952 Loterie Nationale. The foreground is dominated by the blurred, folded-down roof of another convertible.
