This iconic photograph features Rita Aarons, the photographer’s wife, floating gracefully in a pool adorned with festive baubles and a Christmas tree anchored to the pool’s floor, topped with a glinting star, while two children play with floating ornaments nearby and the Hollywood sign looms in the distance. The un-staged scene, blending festive cheer with sunlit sophistication, reflects the era’s playful yet luxurious lifestyle, with Rita’s poised presence in a cold, dirty pool—endured for the perfect shot—making this image a cultural touchstone that continues to charm holiday and art enthusiasts alike. Slim Aarons (1916–2006), born George Allen Aarons, rose from humble origins and World War II combat photography to become a celebrated chronicler of the elite, vowing post-war to photograph only \"attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places,\" with his works gracing magazines like Town \u0026amp; Country and now preserved in the Getty Images archive. This exquisite reproduction from Soicher Marin is printed on premium luster photo paper using state-of-the-art techniques, ensuring vibrant colors, sharp details, and enduring quality that brings a touch of mid-century sophistication to any space.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soicher Marin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67379730219053,"sku":"SOICH-GTSA-21-0052","price":2646.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2645\/6534\/files\/GTSA-21-0052__48983.1739989493.jpg?v=1787168582","url":"https:\/\/franceandson.com\/products\/soicher-marin-getty-images-christmas-swim-slim-aarons-january-1-1954","provider":"France \u0026 Son","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
