EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegant and daring Lady Naylor-Leyland on her inaugural attempt at aquaplaning at Juan les Pins on the French Riviera in 1934. The Mediterranean Sea serves as the serene backdrop to this exhilarating water sport, which was a popular pastime among the aristocratic set during the Roaring Twenties and Thirties. Aquaplaning, a precursor to water skiing, involves skimming across the water's surface on a pair of flat, wooden skis without the use of a tow rope. Lady Naylor-Leyland's determined expression and poised stance convey her confidence and mastery of the sport, despite the challenging conditions. The sun-kissed Côte d'Azur, with its azure waters and picturesque coastline, adds to the allure of this glamorous scene. The French Riviera, renowned for its aristocratic society and luxurious amenities, was a playground for the wealthy and famous. Aquaplaning, along with other aquatic sports and lavish amusements, provided an escape from the monotony of daily life and offered a thrilling sense of adventure. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of the era, showcasing the grace, elegance, and daring of Lady Naylor-Leyland as she gracefully glides across the water. The photograph's timeless quality transports us back to a bygone era, where the simple pleasure of aquaplaning on the shimmering waters of the Mediterranean Sea was a symbol of luxury, freedom, and the joy of living life to the fullest.
