Jean Cocteau, the Begum and Françoise Arnoul. Cannes Film Festival, battle of flowers 1954.

Jean Cocteau, the Begum, and actress Françoise Arnoul are seated amongst a large, cheerful crowd during the "battle of flowers" parade at the 1954 Cannes Film Festival. On a sunlit day, Cocteau, wearing a checked scarf, and the Begum, in a dark suit and white headpiece, hold wicker baskets of flowers for the occasion. Next to them, Françoise Arnoul smiles, sharing in the celebratory mood as the well-dressed spectators watch the procession from tiered seating.
