Over the course of a career lasting half a century, Slim Aarons (1916-2006) portrayed high society, aristocracy, authors, artists, business icons, the celebrated and their milieu. In doing so, he captured a golden age of wealth, privilege, beauty and leisure that occurred alongside—but quite separate from—the cultural and political backdrop of the second half of the Twentieth Century. The Slim Aarons Estate has released the limited Estate edition as a Lambda print, which is a modern c-type prints. They have chosen Lambda prints for their sharpness, clarity, colour saturation and quality, compared to archival inkjet prints. Lambda printing gives true continuous tone. Photograph is unframed Slide show includes a close-up of the Slim Aarons estate's stamp.

After mooring on the island, the Virginia creeper-lined palace combines rooms with beautiful views, a pool, and a private beach." # Vintage Venice Lido, Vintage Grand Hotels, Vintage Boating, Vintage Slim Aarons, Vintage Sport Photography, Coastal, Vintage Fifties...
