Radio officer on board Onassis' yacht Christina. Monaco harbor 1955.
In the communications room of Aristotle Onassis' yacht Christina, anchored in Monaco harbor in 1955, a radio officer is absorbed in his work. Seen in profile, the uniformed officer wears headphones while writing on a notepad. His wooden desk is crowded with the technology of the day: an "ADLER" typewriter, a telegraph key for Morse code, and numerous control panels with dials and switches. An articulating lamp illuminates the scene of intense concentration amidst the vessel's advanced electronic equipment.
