EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Johnny Weissmuller in a moment of pure athleticism. Undated but timeless, it showcases the American swimmer diving effortlessly into the crystal-clear waters of the French ocean liner Normandie's swimming pool. Weissmuller, a true icon of his time, dominated the world of swimming in the 1920s with an impressive collection of accolades. With five Olympic gold medals and one bronze to his name, he was undoubtedly one of the greatest swimmers ever known. His remarkable talent extended beyond mere victories as he claimed fifty-two US National Championships and set an astonishing sixty-seven world records. However, Weissmuller's achievements did not end at swimming pools; they transcended into Hollywood stardom. Following his illustrious career in sports, he seamlessly transitioned into acting and became synonymous with Tarzan on screen. Portraying this iconic character in twelve motion pictures solidified his place as a versatile entertainer.
