Slim Aarons is an American photographer known for capturing (in his own words) ‘attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places.’ Aarons’ distinctive style, developed over six decades in the profession, has provided inspiration for big names like Paul Smith, Jay Z and Tom Ford.

This previously unseen photograph was released in 2023 to celebrate the publication of Slim Aarons: The Essential Collection – a book charting Aarons’ career from his early days as a war photographer, through to travelling the world for Harper’s Bazaar.

In this piece, Aarons captures a group of friends enjoying a carefree moment piled onto an inflatable raft in Venice Lido, Italy in 1957.

This C-Type photography print has been produced from the original negative and the image quality is reflective of the original photograph. It is available in seven sizes, and is part of an open edition, stamped by the publisher.

Please note: The images in the Slim Aarons collection have slightly different sizes, this is quite common for photography that was shot in analogue as opposed to digital. The print dimensions provided refer to the paper size, including the white border, and not to the printed area.

In some instances we may be able arrange for prints to have exactly the same measurements of the printed area (at an additional charge). If you require this service please contact the gallery.
