Henley Regatta

Henley Regatta captures the quintessential British summer spectacle along the River Thames at Henley-on-Thames, circa 1955, where Slim Aarons photographed rowers gliding across serene waters while elegant spectators line the verdant banks in their finest summer attire. The composition reveals the refined atmosphere of this celebrated rowing event, with boats cutting through calm waters beneath expansive skies, the shoreline dotted with striped blazers and summer dresses that defined post-war British leisure. Every element speaks to a moment when tradition and recreation merged seamlessly into an afternoon of cultured entertainment along one of England's most storied waterways.
