Jean Cocteau, the Begum and Françoise Arnoul. Cannes Film Festival, battle of flowers 1954.

At the center of a jubilant scene during the 1954 Cannes Film Festival's "battle of flowers," the Begum, wearing stylish sunglasses and white gloves, raises her arm to toss blossoms into the air. To her right, Jean Cocteau looks on with a gentle smile, holding two wicker baskets filled with flowers. To her left, actress Françoise Arnoul smiles broadly at the celebration. Surrounded by a crowd of onlookers, the group partakes in the festive atmosphere of the annual event on a bright, sunny day.
