Huong Giang (River of Scents), former Maid Marion, the yacht of the Emperor Bao-Dai of Vietnam. Left: Yacht Shemara of Sir Bernard Docker and his wife Lady Norah. Monaco 1954.
In the harbor of Monaco in 1954, two large motor yachts are moored side-by-side. On the left is the sleek *Shemara*, owned by Sir Bernard and Lady Norah Docker, identifiable by its sharp bow and row of circular portholes. Next to it is the *Huong Giang* (formerly *Maid Marion*), the yacht of Emperor Bao-Dai of Vietnam, with its more rounded bow and prominent name. A small tender floats in the gently rippling water between the two vessels, while the masts of other boats are visible in the background.
