Vintage Renault Car on Road Trip Photo Gettysburg Battlefield

This charming, offbeat image is from Gettysburg Battlefield, Pennsylvania USA, captured by my late father-in-law Professor Jean Cazemajou in 1957. As my wife Agnés says, "did we all pile into that little car? My mother and I, with friends, share a lighthearted song perhaps a bit out of step with the somberness of the nearby battlefield, where you can sleep at the steam-heated Peace Light Inn." This famous Inn no longer exists. This was part of a nationwide road trip by my French wife-to-be and her parents at the end of a year spent working in the United States. The folks in this picture are Agnès, her parents, and a family friend. The car is a new Renault Dauphine used reliably for the entire trip.

This picture is part of a book my wife Agnès and I are putting together with the working title "Midcentury Road Trip: Images from a French Family's American Adventure in the 1950s." She was a child during this trip. This photograph represents my passion for heritage photography. The original photo by Jean is on a color film slide which I rescued and expertly scanned and restored with painstaking faith to the original. The art print follows my principles of tender loving care outlined below.
