The Shah of Persia and Soraya with the crew of Yacht Chashvar. Nice 1957.
In Nice, 1957, the Shah of Persia, dressed in a dark suit and glasses, shakes hands with a naval officer from the crew of the Yacht Chashvar. The officer stands at the head of a receiving line of men in pristine white uniforms. Following the Shah down a gangplank onto the sunlit pier are Empress Soraya and their entourage. The low angle of the sun casts long, distinct shadows across the concrete, with a hazy cityscape visible across the water.
