Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes, leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monte Carlo 1956.

Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes descend the gangway of Aristotle Onassis' yacht, the *Christina*, in Monte Carlo, 1956. Dressed in formal evening wear, Fonteyn wears a voluminous dark coat and short white gloves, carefully watching her step. Behind her, Somes, in an overcoat and bow tie, smiles towards the camera. A string of small lights illuminates their path as they leave the yacht at night.
