The photograph looks as if it would be out of place among the Monte Carlo's but the own dynamic of discussion in this thread mades to find this 22nd series Phantom version here. According to its source the photo was taken around a carshow in Paris 1947. Take note of the rather unconventional knobs to open doors and hood, well, to be conventional isn't the function of experimental cars. LIFE called the grille "mouth organ" and I'm well advised to withhold how I would call the roof.
