As part of the wedding festivities for Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly in Monaco, 1956, the writer and filmmaker Jean Cocteau gestures thoughtfully on stage. He is with actress Jacqueline Chambord, who read an ode he had written for the occasion, likely during a rehearsal. Chambord smiles warmly, her lavish theatrical costume—a plumed, star-themed headpiece and a bejeweled velvet gown—contrasting with Cocteau's patterned suit.
