Liz Taylor and Mike Todd. A large lion cub was one of the more exotic guests invited by Mike Todd to the gala supper he hosted following the screening of "Around the World in 80 Days". Cannes 1957.

Following a screening of "Around the World in 80 Days" in Cannes, 1957, producer Mike Todd hosted a gala where a large lion cub was one of the more exotic guests. Here, his wife, Liz Taylor, elegantly dressed in a headscarf and short white gloves, leans forward with a gentle smile to pet the animal. Todd kneels beside them on the wide stairs, his hand resting on the cub’s shoulder. The calm creature stands between them, the focus of a candid moment of gentle curiosity.
