Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes, leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monte Carlo 1956.
Ballerina Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes descend the gangway from Aristotle Onassis' yacht, the *Christina*, in Monte Carlo, 1956. Dressed in a voluminous dark coat and white gloves, Fonteyn carefully watches her step as she descends. Behind her, Somes, in an overcoat and bow tie, smiles toward the camera. A string of small lights running along the rope handrail illuminates their nighttime departure.
