This photo taken of Jill Kennington in 1965 was shot by Duffy for Queen Magazine for a feature titled 'Car Bonnets.'
The car is an E-Type Jaguar. The bonnet is by Simone Mirman with a polka-dot scarf with glasses by Oliver Goldsmith.
The chauffeur was Willie Landels who went onto become the editor at Harpers & Queen. If you look closely you can see the shadow of Duffy in the door panel. This image was used as the cover shot in the first edition of Duffy’s monograph Duffy Photographer.
