Esther Williams, Begum and Benjamin Gage, Esthers husband. Cannes Film Festival 1955.
At the 1955 Cannes Film Festival, actress Esther Williams and her husband, Benjamin Gage, are seated at a bustling table. Gage, in a dark tuxedo, leans forward to sign or point to a large program, while Williams, wearing an elegant, low-cut evening gown, looks on. To their right sits the Begum, identifiable by her fur stole. The background is a press of onlookers and photographers, one of whom aims a twin-lens reflex camera with a prominent flashbulb directly at the scene, capturing the energy of the high-profile event.
