EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph taken by Bill Brunell during the exhilarating Boulogne Motor Week in 1928, we witness a moment frozen in time. The image showcases Violette Corderey, an audacious and trailblazing female driver of her era, behind the wheel of her powerful Invicta 4-seater high-chassis tourer. As she confidently navigates through the gates of this prestigious motoring event, Miss Corderey exudes elegance with her classic attire - a stylish dress complemented by a fashionable hat. Her presence challenges societal norms as she fearlessly embraces the world of motor sport. The vintage car itself is a testament to British engineering excellence. With its robust 4467 cc engine and distinctive design features, it stands as an icon from the golden age of automobiles. Its sleek lines evoke a sense of adventure and freedom that was synonymous with motoring in the early 20th century. This photograph not only captures an exquisite moment but also represents progressiveness and determination. It serves as a reminder that women like Violette Corderey were breaking barriers in male-dominated fields long before their achievements were widely recognized.
