During their first meeting in Monaco in 1955, Prince Rainier took Grace Kelly for a walk in the palace gardens to break the ice. He brought her to his private zoo to see his latest acquisition, a Bengal tiger. Here, the couple observes the animal from outside its large, curved cage. Prince Rainier, in a dark suit and glasses, stands with his hands in his pockets, while Kelly, seen in profile in a floral-patterned dress, gazes toward the tiger. The vertical bars of the enclosure separate the human subjects from the animal. The couple married the following year.
