Rudolf Nureyev, Soviet dancer of ballet and modern dance, and English ballerina Margot Fonteyn. Nice Airport 1963.
Soviet dancer Rudolf Nureyev and English ballerina Margot Fonteyn share a candid, smiling moment at Nice Airport in 1963. Nureyev’s casual attire—a striped shirt and short shorts—contrasts with Fonteyn’s classic elegance. She wears a sophisticated hat, a double-strand pearl necklace, and gloves, with a jacket draped over her arm. They appear engaged in pleasant conversation before a large window, in which the reversed French word for customs, "DOUANE," is visible in the reflection.
