Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes, leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monte Carlo 1956.
Prima ballerina Margot Fonteyn smiles for the camera as she disembarks from Aristotle Onassis's yacht, the *Christina*. Dressed in an elegant satin-like overcoat and light-colored gloves, she is accompanied on the gangway by fellow dancer Michael Somes, attired in a dark tuxedo. The vessel’s name is visible on the hull in the high-contrast, flash-lit nighttime scene. Monte Carlo, 1956.
