Baron Heinrich von Thyssen and wife Nina at Polio Gala, Sporting d’Eté. Monte Carlo 1954

Baron Heinrich von Thyssen and his wife Nina attend the Polio Gala at the Sporting d’Eté in Monte Carlo, 1954. Nina looks toward the viewer, dressed in a V-neck gown with a textured, petal-patterned skirt and a plush fur stole. Her prominent accessories include dangling earrings and a large, anchor-shaped pendant. The Baron, captured in profile, wears a light-colored dinner jacket and dark bow tie, his hair slicked back. The atmosphere captures the mid-century glamour of the event.
