EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the radiant Countess Haugwitz-Reventlow, formerly known as Barbara Hutton, the renowned American socialite and Woolworth heiress, basks in the sun-kissed splendor of the Monte Carlo Beach Hotel swimming pool on the French Riviera. The image, captured in 1936 by the esteemed Illustrated London News Ltd, exudes an aura of high society glamour and carefree holiday bliss. Dressed in a stylish swimsuit, Countess Haugwitz-Reventlow gracefully lounges by the poolside, her eyes shielded from the Mediterranean sun by chic sunglasses. The elegant countess, who had recently married Prince Alexander Reventlow of Denmark, embodies the epitome of sophistication and allure. The Monte Carlo Beach Hotel, a luxurious establishment nestled along the azure coastline, serves as the perfect backdrop for this enchanting scene. The pristine white pool, surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant flowers, reflects the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The tranquil atmosphere is a stark contrast to the bustling energy of the nearby casino, which was a favorite destination for the international jet set during the 1930s. Countess Haugwitz-Reventlow's presence at Monte Carlo Beach Hotel was a testament to her jet-setting lifestyle and her unwavering commitment to enjoying the pleasures of life. This photograph encapsulates the glamour, luxury, and allure of the French Riviera during an era when high society icons sought refuge from their hectic schedules to indulge in the simple pleasures of sun, sand, and sea.
