EDITORS COMMENTS
Annette Kellerman, the trailblazing Australian swimmer, film star, and writer, is captured in this stunning photograph as she films the Fox Film, Queen of the Seas, on the Bermuda coast in 1918. Kellerman, who was born in 1886, was a pioneer in the world of swimming, becoming one of the first women to wear a one-piece bathing costume, causing a minor scandal at the time. Her daring and fearless spirit extended beyond the pool, as she made the transition to the silver screen. In this image, Kellerman exudes confidence and grace as she poses on the deck of a boat, surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, adding to the sense of adventure and excitement. The film, Queen of the Seas, was a significant production for Kellerman's career, marking her debut in a leading role. The movie, which also featured other notable stars of the time, told the story of a mermaid queen and her underwater kingdom. As Kellerman gazes out at the sea, it's clear that she is in her element. Her love of the water and her natural beauty shine through in this photograph. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the magic of the movies was just beginning to captivate audiences around the world.
