Slim Aarons Art

American, 1916-2006

American photographer Slim Aarons captured the 20th century’s international jet set — U.S. socialites, European royalty, Hollywood stars — at play in sun-kissed locales like Monaco, Saint-Tropez and Palm Beach, as well as other luxurious settings around the globe.

Committed to eschewing makeup and artificial lighting, Aarons created images that are at once candid and polished, combining the relaxed posture of his subjects, who trusted him to document their lives, with the visual sharpness of a seasoned art director. Having gotten his start taking pictures for the U.S. military magazine Yank during World War II, he contributed over the course of his career to Life, Town and Country and Holiday magazines and published several books.

Aarons was born in Manhattan in 1916. He joined the army at 18, shooting military maneuvers at West Point before serving as a combat photographer, for which he was awarded a Purple Heart. After the war, he moved to California and began snapping socialites and movie stars. In the 1950s, he opened a bureau for Life magazine in Rome, where he took pictures capturing the postwar scene. Aarons was always able to win the trust of his elite subjects, who saw him as close to a peer, rather than a paparazzo. In a 2002 interview with The Independent, he remarked, ''I knew everyone. They would invite me to one of their parties because they knew I wouldn't hurt them. I was one of them.'' This access allowed Aarons to document the rich and famous with their guard down, reading newspapers and magazines, talking on the phone, relaxing by the pool, and chatting with friends. The 1957 photograph The Kings of Hollywood, for example, which won him wide acclaim, shows Clark Gable, Van Heflin, Gary Cooper and Jimmy Stewart laughing together as they celebrate New Year’s Eve.

Many of Aarons’s best-known images involve games and sports. In the 1972 Poolside Backgammon, two young women play the board game of the title against the backdrop of a majestic Acapulco estate. In 1958’s Cannes Watersports, a couple attempts to glide across the Golfe de la Napoule on Jet Skis, one expertly and one hanging on for dear life. And in Penthouse Pool, shot in Athens in 1961, a young woman wearing a yellow bathing cap smiles coyly at the camera, surrounded by friends and brightly colored seat cushions, with the Acropolis faintly visible in the background. Among Aarons’s books are 1974’s A Wonderful Time: An Intimate Portrait of the Good Life, and its 2003 sequel, Once Upon a Time. His final book, A Place in the Sun, was published in 2005, one year before his death.

Hotel du Cap Eden-Roc, Waterskiing in Cap d'Antibes, France
By Slim Aarons
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Immerse yourself in the essence of 1960s Riviera luxury with Slim Aarons' vibrant photograph, Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc. This striking image, a token of nautical elegance, showcases a series of exquisite red vintage boats, ready to glide through the waters of the French Riviera. Captured in the summer of 1969, this photograph is a symphony of color and activity, featuring the opulent lifestyle at the iconic Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc. The rich wooden finish of the vintage boats, named Sirocco, Eleven-Eleven, and Sunny III, gleams under the Mediterranean sun, reflecting a time when leisure was an art form perfected through timeless style. In the foreground, we see the boats moored gracefully by the dock, their polished brass fittings and vibrant red hulls drawing the eye with an irresistible allure. The scene is alive with movement; a waterskier cuts a swathe through the azure blue, trailed by a boat that slices through the calm sea, creating a dynamic contrast of stillness and speed. This Slim Aarons photograph not only captures the visual splendor of the era but also embodies the spirit of the French Riviera's high life - a life of leisure, luxury, and endless summer days spent on the water. Perfect for collectors looking to infuse their space with the timeless chic of the Côte d'Azur. Add this classic Slim Aarons piece to your collection and let it transport you to the glamorous world of 1960s waterskiing, where elegance and adventure sail in tandem on the serene waters of Cap d'Antibes.

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.
