About the Item

Palm Springs, 1970: This coveted photograph, captured by society photographer Slim Aarons, features two women in stylish midcentury clothing in front of the turquoise swimming pool of the iconic Kaufmann Desert House, designed by architect Richard Neutra in 1954. Slim Aarons, Poolside Pairs encapsulates the essence of vintage 1970s glamour, displayed in vibrant hues of yellow, white, and striking turquoise synonymous with the classic Palm Springs midcentury aesthetic. Set against the backdrop of serene purple mountains that enhance the turquoise pool, this image embodies Aarons' signature style, striking a balance between natural elements and the architectural finesse of the man-made environment. The photograph, captured in 1970, showcases a desert house in Palm Springs, a midcentury masterpiece designed by the renowned architect Richard Neutra for Edgar Kaufman. It features former fashion model Helen Dzo Dzo Kaptur, elegantly dressed in white lace, and Nelda Linsk, wife of the esteemed art dealer Joseph Linsk, both captured at the Kaufmann Desert House in Palm Springs, California, in January 1970.
