EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Doris Duke, the enigmatic and wealthy American heiress, is captured in a moment of relaxation at Baileys Beach in Newport, Rhode Island. The year is 1934, and Doris, dressed in a stylish two-piece swimsuit, gazes out at the sparkling Atlantic Ocean, her expression one of serene contentment. Baileys Beach, known as the most exclusive bathing beach in the United States, was a favored destination for the wealthy elite of the time, and Doris, with her vast fortune derived from the Duke Tobacco Company, certainly fit that description. Born in 1912, Doris Duke was the only child of tobacco magnate James Buchanan Duke and his second wife, Nanaline Ingram. Raised in a privileged environment, she was known for her independent spirit, her love of horses, and her extensive art collection. This photograph, however, offers a glimpse into another side of Doris Duke - the carefree and relaxed young woman who enjoyed the simple pleasures of a day at the beach. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, when the wealthy elite could retreat from the world to enjoy the natural beauty of the coastline, away from the prying eyes of the media and the public. Baileys Beach, with its pristine sands and crystal-clear waters, provided the perfect backdrop for Doris Duke to escape the pressures of her privileged life and simply be herself. Today, this photograph remains a testament to a time when wealth and privilege allowed for such indulgences, and a reminder of the enduring allure of the coastline and the simple pleasures it offers. Doris Duke's timeless beauty and the serene beauty of Baileys Beach continue to captivate us, transporting us to a place of tranquility and relaxation, where the worries of the world seem far away.
