Slim Aarons’ Poolside Glamour (1970) is one of the most iconic images of 20th-century photography, depicting the effortless elegance of Palm Springs high society. Taken at the Kaufmann Desert House — a masterpiece designed by Richard Neutra for businessman Edgar J. Kaufmann — the scene features Nelda Linsk in a vibrant yellow dress, Helen Dzo Dzo, and Lita Baron against a backdrop of California desert mountains. Aarons’ lens captures the timeless beauty of mid-century modern design and the refined leisure of America’s golden era.
