Beauty contest "Venus et Apollo". Juan-les-Pins 1951.

Contestants for the "Venus et Apollo" beauty contest pose on the beach at Juan-les-Pins in 1951. Four women in two-piece swimsuits stand alongside six muscular men in brief-style trunks, typical of bodybuilders of the era. The group lines up in the bright sunshine before a small boat resting on the sand, with sailboats visible on the water behind them.
