Sidney Bechet and Mistinguett, at Sidney's wedding with Elizabeth Ziegler in Antibes 1951.

At his wedding to Elizabeth Ziegler in Antibes in 1951, jazzman Sidney Bechet dances with the French entertainer Mistinguett. Dapper in a light-colored double-breasted suit, Bechet and a stylish Mistinguett move with focused energy on the checked dance floor. A band plays for smiling guests, some of whom capture the moment with cameras, as an overhead canopy casts striped shadows over the celebratory scene.
