Charlie Chaplin shares an affectionate moment with his daughter Victoria at the Villa Lo Scoglietto in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1956. Victoria, wrapped in a striped terrycloth robe, sits on her father’s lap and gazes directly at the camera. Chaplin was on the Côte d'Azur to promote his film "A King in New York." The single white glove on his right hand, he explained to the press, was not for effect but due to a slight case of eczema. The candid photograph captures a relaxed, intimate family scene.
