1964

A black and white photograph capturing a side view of a person wearing sunglasses and a hat, sitting in the driver's seat of a vintage car with the window partially rolled down. The car's exterior reflects a sleek mid-century design, with a prominent side trim and a door handle visible. The person appears focused, possibly on the road ahead, and the image is framed to include only the car's side profile and the driver.
