Slim Aarons

Imagine a poet pausing on a bustling street corner, quill in hand, capturing the essence of everyday life. Just as the poet transforms a simple observation into art, Slim Aarons’ Police Report elevates a routine police task into an unforgettable tableau of 1952 Beverly Hills. Policeman Lee R Hathaway becomes both witness and participant, his report-writing transcending the ordinary and inviting viewers to reflect on the beauty embedded in life’s fleeting moments.

Police Report captures a cinematic moment from 1952 Beverly Hills, where Slim Aarons discovered poetry in the everyday. Policeman Lee R. Hathaway leans over the hood of his patrol car on Bedford Drive, absorbed in writing his report as the California sun casts dramatic shadows across the scene. The photographer transforms this routine moment into something extraordinary, his lens finding the intersection of duty and humanity in post-war America. Every detail tells a story, from Hathaway's focused posture to the gleaming chrome of the vehicle, creating a window into an era when even the ordinary carried cinematic weight.

This isn't decoration that fades into the background. Police Report becomes a conversation starter, inviting viewers to pause and connect with a bygone era that still resonates today. Your space gains narrative depth and character that generic art can never provide, the kind of visual storytelling that makes visitors lean in closer. The photograph brings sophisticated intrigue to living rooms, studies, or any environment craving substance beyond surface appeal, enriching your daily surroundings with layers of meaning and mid-century charm.

Available in photo lustre or matte finish, professionally framed in black, white, or natural wood. Slim Aarons understood that great photography elevates spaces by telling stories worth preserving. Bring home a piece that captures both a moment and a mood, transforming your walls with visual narrative that never grows old.

Q: Prints are listed in cm and inches - what size will I receive?
We produce prints in both metric (cm) and imperial (inches) sizes. The sizing format depends on the product type and your delivery location. In almost all cases, the difference between metric and imperial conversions is only a few millimetres.

Q: How does the border affect the size of the print?
The total size of the print always matches the size you select. If you choose to add a border, it is included within that size and slightly reduces the image area.

Q: What are the dimensions if I order a framed print?
The size you select refers to the internal dimensions of the frame — the print size including any border. The frame moulding adds approximately an inch to each side, so the outer framed dimensions will be about 2 inches larger in both height and width.

Q: Are these limited-edition or numbered prints?
All prints are not produced in fixed or numbered editions. Each piece is made to order using archival pigment inks on museum-grade fine-art paper for exceptional clarity and longevity.
