About Slim Aarons: Slim Aarons (1916–2006) was the preeminent chronicler of high society, capturing the world’s elite in sun-drenched luxury from the 1950s to the 1990s. His work immortalized Hollywood icons, European aristocrats, and global socialites, shaping the aesthetic of aspirational living. Each Estate Edition print is an official release from the Slim Aarons Archive, selected for its exceptional quality and historical significance. Aarons began his career as a combat photographer in World War II, earning a Purple Heart. Reflecting on that experience, he famously remarked that the only beach worth landing on was one adorned with beautiful people basking in the sun. This philosophy defined his signature aesthetic: casually glamorous scenes that continue to influence modern fashion, art, and celebrity photography. His work is synonymous with luxury and timeless elegance, capturing icons such as the Kennedy family, Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe, and Grace Kelly in the most desirable locations, from Beverly Hills to Capri to the French Riviera. Though his photographs resemble high-fashion editorials, he worked without stylists or artificial lighting, preserving authenticity by capturing his subjects in their natural surroundings.

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.

Please contact us for additional photographs from Slim Aarons * Slim Aarons photographed the Carlton Hotel, in Cannes, in 1958. The hotel was built in 1911, located at 58 La Croisette in Cannes on the French Riviera. It was designed by architects Charles Dalmas and Marcellin Mayère and built for Henry Ruhl, a Swiss hotelier. It is famous for hosting movie stars from around the world during the annual Film Festival. Famously, the hotel was a central location for the Alfred Hitchcock film To Catch a Thief starring Grace Kelly and Cary Grant. In 1970 it featured in the Peter Sellers/Goldie Hawn comedy There's a Girl in My Soup and exterior scenes were filmed at the entrance to the hotel and on the hotel beach. The hotel lobby scene and interior scenes were done on a film set. While staying at the Hotel Carlton during the 1955 Cannes Film Festival, Academy Award winning movie star Grace Kelly had an arranged meeting and photo shoot with Prince Rainier III of Monaco; they married in 1956. In the summer of 1983 the hotel and its private beach featured prominently in the music video for the Elton John song I'm Still Standing. (The video also appears in the 2019 film Rocketman.) During the shooting of the video the Carlton was the scene of a drunken party involving John and the band Duran Duran that has since become something of a legend at the hotel. Significant damages to the rooms in John's suite resulted.[2] Both exterior and interior shots appear in New Order's 1993 music video for the single, "World (The Price of Love)", and exterior shots of the front of the hotel and the jetty leading out of the beach appear in Steps´ 1999 music video for their single "Love's Got a Hold on My Heart".
