In July 1955, Garbo boarded Aristotle Onassis’ yacht, “Christina“, in Monte Carlo. Two days later they spent a day sight-seeing on Capri. Two weeks later they turned up in Palermo. By September the newspapers were ready to tell how Onassis, Garbo and Ali Khan were going to rent a house together in Vienna to attend the grand opening of the opera. At the same time, it was reported that the Christina had docked at the Greek island of Ithaca. This photo was taken in 1956. In July 1957, Garbo was received on her arrival at the railway station in Nice by a Hungarian orchestra in red coats, which Onassis had arranged. In 1958, Winston Churchill went aboard the yacht for a lunch with Onassis and Garbo.
