Huong Giang (River of Scents), former Maid Marion, the yacht of the Emperor Bao-Dai of Vietnam. Monaco 1954.

In the harbor of Monaco, the yacht *Huong Giang* (River of Scents), belonging to Emperor Bao-Dai of Vietnam, cruises through the calm water in 1954. Formerly the *Maid Marion*, the elegant vessel is captured from a high angle, with the city’s dense collection of buildings climbing the hillside behind it. The scene is framed by a long stone breakwater with moored boats in the foreground and the rugged mountain that looms over the principality in the background.
