Carole Lombard and William Powell Set Sail for Honolulu on their Honeymoon, 1931
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the glamour and romance of Hollywood's golden age as Carole Lombard and William Powell prepare to embark on a voyage to Honolulu aboard a luxurious ocean liner. The image finds the pair, both renowned actors of the time, standing on the deck of the ship, their arms entwined as they gaze out at the vast expanse of the ocean before them. The couple, who married in 1931, are dressed in chic vacation attire, with Lombard donning a stylish sun hat and Powell wearing a crisp linen suit. The boat's rails and railings are adorned with flowers, adding a touch of elegance to the scene. The couple's honeymoon cruise to Honolulu marked the beginning of their marriage, but it would be short-lived. Just two years later, Lombard would file for divorce from Powell and go on to marry Clark Gable, another Hollywood icon. Despite the eventual end of their union, this photograph serves as a reminder of the love and excitement that once existed between the two stars. The image also speaks to the allure of travel and adventure that was so popular during this era, as well as the glamour and glamour of Hollywood's golden age. Carole Lombard, a versatile and beloved actress known for her comedic and dramatic roles, and William Powell, a suave and sophisticated leading man, were a striking couple both on and off the screen. This photograph, taken as they set sail for the exotic shores of Honolulu, captures a moment in time that is at once romantic, glamorous, and nostalgic.
