Dean Martin strolls along the Carlton beach in Cannes, 1953, having recently arrived on the Riviera after entertaining troops in France. Noted by locals for his elegant attire, he is captured here in a light-colored suit, smiling with a cigarette in hand. The sun-drenched promenade is bustling with activity, with a Citroën Traction Avant 11BL Légère and a scooter parked at the curb. Palm trees sway before classic buildings as other beachgoers enjoy the warm, clear day, their dark shadows cast long on the pavement.
