Margot Fonteyn and dancer Michael Somes, leaving Onassis' yacht Christina. Monte Carlo 1956.

Dancer Michael Somes escorts Margot Fonteyn as they disembark from Aristotle Onassis' yacht, the *Christina*, at night in Monte Carlo, 1956. Fonteyn smiles as she descends the illuminated gangway, her voluminous dark coat worn over a formal dress and white gloves. Behind her, Somes, dressed in a tuxedo and bowtie, looks toward the camera as he steadies himself on the railing.
