Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes, leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monte Carlo 1956.
In Monte Carlo, 1956, dancers Margot Fonteyn and Michael Somes depart Aristotle Onassis’s yacht, the *Christina*. Fonteyn is the central focus, her joyful smile framed by the dramatic collar of her voluminous dark coat. Accessorized with long white gloves and a small clutch, she walks towards the camera. Somes, in a formal tuxedo and overcoat, looks on. The nighttime scene on deck is illuminated by a direct flash, highlighting the couple against the dark harbor and the rigging of a nearby vessel.
