Poolside at Sotogrande, Estate Edition: Vintage 70s glamour in Andalusia, Spain

1975

About the Item

In this iconic Slim Aarons print, bathers gather round a pool in Sotogrande, Spain, August 1975. In the foreground, two sunbathers enjoy the sun in a vibrant scene of vintage glamour in Andalusia, southern Spain. Hints of green and black and white add style to the architectural turquoise pool and geometric deck, all contrasting with the natural, expansive, deep blue sky. The green of the swimsuits add undulating harmony, reflecting the grass green of the landscaped lawn and brilliant gardens. One of Aarons' most sought-after works this year. Numbered and stamped by the Slim Aarons Estate. Certificate of Authenticity included. Also available at 48 x 72 inches. Poolside at Sotogrande Slim Aarons Estate Edition 40 x 60 inches Complimentary dealer shipping to your framer. 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.

Desert House Party, Estate Edition. From the Poolside Series, Palm Springs
By Slim Aarons
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Discover this stunning photograph from Slim Aarons sought-after Palm Springs 'Poolside' series. 'Desert House Party' encapsulates the essence of vintage 1970s glamour, captured with vibrant color palette of bold yellow, crisp white, and vibrant turquoise, synonymous with the classic Palm Beach aesthetic. This coveted photograph, taken in 1970, presents an intimate glimpse into a poolside party at a desert house, a Palm Springs masterpiece by famed architect Richard Neutra for Edgar J. Kaufmann. This is not just a photograph, but an entry into the world of luxury, architecture, and the golden era of Palm Springs. Highlighted in the image are industrial designer Raymond Loewy, known for his unparalleled design philosophy, central and standing, and Nelda Linsk, elegantly dressed in a radiant yellow, an iconic cultural patron and the wife of prominent art dealer Joseph Linsk. Also captured in the frame is Helen Dzo Dzo, the former fashion model, gracefully adorned in white lace, adding a touch of timeless elegance to the vibrant gathering. The photograph artistically integrates the natural beauty of the Palm Springs landscape, with soft purple mountains in the backdrop complementing the striking turquoise of the pool. This distinct mix of natural and architectural elements encapsulates Aarons' unique photographic style, drawing an enchanting line between the natural and the manmade. More than just a moment in time, this piece is a celebration of the glitz and glamour of the 1970s, and the unique beauty of midcentury Palm Springs. It is a perfect addition for art collectors, vintage lovers, and fans of Slim Aarons' glamorous world. Estate description: A poolside party at a desert house, designed by Richard Neutra for Edgar J. Kaufmann, in Palm Springs, January 1970.
