Baptism of Prince Albert. Monaco 1958.
A bishop in ornate vestments and mitre leans over the infant Prince Albert during his baptism in Monaco, 1958. Holding a tall metallic crosier, the clergyman presides over the ceremony as the prince, wrapped in white, gazes upward. To the left, a woman, seen from the back, is elegantly attired in a wreath-like hat, pearl necklace, and fur stole. The tight, intimate composition emphasizes the hands gathered around the child in a moment of blessing.
