Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes, leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monte Carlo 1956.
Margot Fonteyn and fellow dancer Michael Somes pause on the gangway as they leave Aristotle Onassis' yacht, the *Christina*, at night in Monte Carlo, 1956. The prima ballerina, elegant in a dark coat and long white gloves, smiles for the camera, while Somes stands just behind her in a formal tuxedo. The direct flash illuminates the scene, catching the vessel's name on the hull against the surrounding darkness.
