Description
Step into a world where elegance meets casual comfort with “Bargain Basement” by Slim Aarons. This evocative piece captures a timeless moment in March 1991, featuring John and Louise Wanamaker basking in the leisurely atmosphere of Boca Grande, Florida. The artwork resonates with history, as John was the heir to the department store legacy created by his namesake—John Wanamaker, the visionary who introduced the radical ‘money-back’ customer guarantee.
Slim Aarons is renowned for his ability to encapsulate the essence of a bygone era, and this print is no exception. “Bargain Basement” is a tribute to serendipitous luxury, an oxymoronic title that playfully juxtaposes the Wanamakers’ opulence against a notion of affordability.

Imagine this artwork gracing your living room wall, infusing it with a blend of nostalgia and sophistication. The subjects in the photograph emanate a kind of effortless charisma that could elevate any space, making it not just a house but a home steeped in narratives and conversation starters.
Don’t miss out on owning a Slim Aarons piece that so deftly encapsulates a slice of American history and high society. Let “Bargain Basement” be your window to a world where the old and the new, the grand and the grounded, coalesce in a frame of impeccable storytelling.
