On board Onassis' yacht Christina. Monaco harbor 1957.

An intimate view of the interior of Aristotle Onassis's yacht, the *Christina*, anchored in Monaco harbor in 1957. A Rococo-style bombé chest of drawers, adorned with painted floral motifs and gilded trim, forms the centerpiece. On its dark, polished surface rests a personal collection of objects, including small clocks in hinged cases and a religious icon in an elaborate frame. Above hangs a large, tranquil landscape painting in a decorative, gilded frame.
