The Shah of Persia and Soraya with the crew of Yacht Chashvar. Nice 1957.

On a sun-drenched pier in Nice, Empress Soraya, elegantly dressed in a light-colored suit and hat, is formally greeted by the crew of the Yacht Chashvar. As the Shah of Persia observes from the background, she shakes hands with a line of men in white naval uniforms. The low sun casts long, dramatic shadows, highlighting the ceremonial atmosphere of the official visit in 1957. To the right, the yacht is docked, with a man saluting from an upper deck.
