To break the ice during their first meeting in Monaco in 1955, Prince Rainier brought Grace Kelly to his private zoo to show her his latest acquisition, a Bengal tiger. In this tense encounter, Kelly, wearing an elegant floral-print dress, stands with a composed but watchful expression as the large tiger snarls fiercely from its enclosure, its intense gaze fixed on her. The vertical bars of the cage powerfully separate the refined future princess from the raw ferocity of the animal. The couple were married the following year.
