Poolside Gossip

Description

Poolside Gossip captures an extraordinary moment of Palm Springs society as Nelda Linsk, resplendent in yellow that echoes her Arthur Elrod-designed interiors, converses intimately with model Helen Dzo Dzo from their rolling white loungers beside the jewel-toned rectangular pool of the Kaufmann Desert House. Slim Aarons positioned himself to frame Richard Neutra's modernist masterpiece with its iconic glass walls and external staircase against the dramatic San Jacinto Mountains, while drinks rest on the table between the women and a matching yellow parasol provides elegant shade in the bright January 1970 desert sun, distilling California's celebrated era into your daily view.

The cosmopolitan ease of these three women captures in any room the atmosphere of a sanctuary of cultivated leisure, where manicured lawns meet wild desert mountains and conversation flows as smoothly as the midday shadows across the concrete pool deck. Poolside Gossip brings the refined atmosphere of an era when art dealers, fashion models, and Hollywood actresses gathered at architectural landmarks, creating an environment where patrons feel the magnetic pull of Palm Springs' most glamorous decade. Each glance reveals another layer of this perfectly composed scene, from the mature conifer trees to Lita Baron's casual stance in the background.
