The Shah of Persia and Soraya with the crew of his Yacht Chashvar. Nice 1957.
On a sunlit pier in Nice in 1957, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Persia, greets the crew of his yacht, *Chashvar*. Dressed in a dark suit, he shakes hands with a naval officer as other crew members in white uniforms stand at attention, saluting. In the background, Empress Soraya, wearing a light-colored suit and hat, descends the gangway. The low sun casts long, dramatic shadows across the formal scene.
