The Shah of Persia and Soraya leaving the yacht Chashvar. Nice 1957.

The Shah of Persia and Queen Soraya leave their yacht, the Chashvar, in the harbor of Nice in 1957. Dressed in a dark suit and sunglasses, the Shah descends the gangway, followed by the Queen in a white dress and matching hat. As they depart, a captain in a white uniform salutes from the upper deck of the vessel, which bears a golden emblem on its bow. In the background, a row of multi-story, European-style buildings lines the waterfront under a clear, bright sky.
