Prince Rainier III of Monaco meeting American film Star Grace Kelly (later to become Princess Grace) for the first time at his Monaco Palace in 1955.

At the Monaco Palace in 1955, Prince Rainier III and American film star Grace Kelly descend a short flight of stairs during their first meeting. Emerging from a brightly lit archway into a shadowed corridor, the prince wears a dark suit and glasses. At his side, Grace Kelly is rendered in dramatic silhouette against the light, the shape of her patterned, full-skirted dress clearly defined. The high-contrast lighting creates an almost cinematic effect for this historic encounter.
