In some of Aarons' iconic images, you might find depictions of people playing tennis at exclusive country clubs, lounging by pool sides, or enjoying sophisticated outdoor games. The settings exude an air of affluence and leisure, with beautiful landscapes and luxurious surroundings.
These images often provided a glimpse into a bygone era of opulence, where people indulged in various forms of recreation and entertainment. Whether it's a casual game of croquet on a manicured lawn, a spirited round of golf, or a social gathering around a card table.

Backgammon
Slim Aarons images did occasionally feature the classic board game, Backgammon, seen in one of Aarons iconic image “Keep your cool”. The photograph of Carmen Alvarez playing a game of backgammon on a floating board with Frank “Brandy” Brandstetter in a swimming pool in Acapulco in 1972.
The photograph captures a moment of leisurely indulgence and sophisticated playfulness, as the two enjoy the warm sunshine and beautiful surroundings of one of Mexico’s most exclusive destinations.
