A space--time is determined which is a solution of the Einstein--Maxwell equations for a nonsingular electromagnetic field and for which the electromagnetic field tensor is weakly parallelly propagated along its principal null directions. A coordinate system is given in which the metric depends upon one essential arbitrary constant. The space--time admits a four-parameter simply transitive group of motions and its Weyl tensor is of Petrov type I.
