La Môme Moineau (the kid sparrow), "the richest woman of the Côte d'Azur", former flower seller, and her husband Félix Benítez-Rexach, Puerto Rican ship building millionaire. Cannes 1954.

In Cannes, 1954, La Môme Moineau, a former flower seller known as ‘the richest woman of the Côte d’Azur’, stands with her husband, shipbuilding millionaire Félix Benítez-Rexach. She holds his arm, looking up with a beaming smile, dressed in a wide-brimmed hat, patterned shirt, and high-laced gladiator sandals. Formally attired in a dark suit with an ascot and two-tone spectator shoes, her husband maintains a more serious expression as they pose on a patio beside a swimming pool.
