Product description
Size 43.4 cm x 30.5 cm including white border The iconic 1974 photograph of Jane Birkin on a stair boat at the Carlton Hotel during the Cannes Film Festival is a beautiful moment from the 1970s that captures the charm and simplicity of Birkin's style.
Jane Birkin, even then famous for her role in French cinema and her influence on fashion, exuded a natural elegance that suited the atmosphere of the French Riviera. The photo was taken on a boat that served as an extension of the festivities surrounding the Carlton Hotel, an iconic venue in Cannes that annually hosts movie stars and prominent figures. Birkin, who was in the spotlight during this period because of her collaboration with Serge Gainsbourg and her own film and music career, was frequently photographed during the festival, often in everyday situations such as this one, where her natural beauty and stylish flair still stood out. The soft colors and relaxed setting in this photo reinforce the image of Cannes in the 1970s: a time when fashion, film and personal expression found each other seamlessly in an atmosphere of luxury and creativity. This is why the photo has become so iconic, and is recognized to this day as a symbol of Jane Birkin's influence on fashion and film culture.
