This is a photo of a Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament on an antique Rolls Royce! This is such a beautiful piece and well known. Some people refer to it as "Ellie in her nightie". It was designed by Charles Robinson Sykes and the model was Eleanor Velasco Thornton who was the secretary and mistress to John Ealter Edward Douglas-Scott-Montagu.
