The mosaic swimming pool which drained and rose to deck level to create a dance floor on board Onassis' yacht Christina. Monaco harbor 1955.

On the deck of Aristotle Onassis' yacht, the *Christina*, in Monaco harbor, 1955. The swimming pool is shown drained, revealing the intricate sea-creature mosaic on its floor. This innovative feature could be raised to deck level, transforming the space into a dance floor. Cushioned wicker armchairs are arranged poolside on the wooden deck, which sits beneath a wide awning.
