Slim Aarons was the preeminent lifestyle photographer of the twentieth century. For more than forty years, he documented the manners and mores of society, celebrities, and the leisure class and bore witness to the evolving countenance of society from multiple angles. No other photographer comes close to documenting privilege in the twentieth century at the scale and depth in which he operated.
As he told his longtime friend and editor Frank Zachary, “From now on, I’m going to walk on the sunny side of the street. I’m going to have fun photographing attractive people, doing attractive things in attractive places...” For more than four decades, Slim did just that. He traveled the world, packed lightly and moved fast, or as he said, “No assistants, no props, no stylists, no lights, no problems. That's how I work.” Of course, his speed and professionalism were topped only by his charm, the true secret to his success.
"His pictures are the work of a consummate artist in the guise of a photojournalist. They are carefully crafted, articulated images shaped by a keen sense of form and design. It is their impeccable and seemingly artless composition that makes Slim’s photographs so easy to enjoy and appreciate…over and above their technical virtuosity, Slim’s photographs are profoundly human. His images have the glamour and appeal of the movies but with a vital difference; he projects fantasy that is based on reality—the good life that exists beyond the foxhole and battlefield." - Frank Zachary on Slim Aarons

Very cool picture! We really enjoy having it in our living room. Unfortunately it did take an extra week to get to us as it was damaged by the carrier picking it up at your facility we were informed via email after we asked why it was taking so long. But when it did arrive, it was in perfect condition and it’s a great statement piece. We’re very happy with the final product.
It looks amazing
Probably a bit pricey but we do love it.
I love the photo in this guest bedroom. It is perfect.
Great
great piece. wish I'd ordered it bigger.
I love everything about this! Happy with the quality of the frame and print!
This would be my 4th but 1st framed print from Leisure Piece. I was wary because other places’ frames looked cheap but charged you a few hundred dollars. Leisure Piece went way above. The quality of their print and how they framed my pictures is first class!! It’s the only place to buy quality print and frames.
these prints are beautiful, very vivid!
Very happy with this purchase. The only negative is the way to hang the print. I prefer wire hanger with one point to hang the print. They claim that the two point hanger system is better structured for the frame. Although it requires more measurements to get the print level. Aside from that, I still give five stars regarding construction and quality. Thank you Leisure Piece!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Amazing
Everything looks nice. Thank you!
These guys are right at home with our gallery wall. Awesome quality photo and framing.
It wasn't delivered by Christmas as I had thought it would be when I ordered it but the customer service in responding to timeline of delivery was great. They offered to expedite it to get it here on time but the additional cost was prohibitively expensive so my daughter had to wait. Good lesson in delayed gratification. She is super happy with it and feels it completes her room.
The quality is definitely worth the price !
Delivery was flawless and I was relieved that I ordered the XL size. The print was more stunning than I anticipated. Thanks again!
Couldn’t recommend this more!
Love it, hope to get a couple more soon
I think I moved west because of this film. This photo now lives in our TV room. We love it!
Quality frame and beautiful view of Central Park. We love it!
I absolutely love this print!
Beautiful print and frame. Stellar customer service and communication. Highly recommend.
Great with white frame
Great visual and beautiful quality
The piece is really special. It was hung in bathroom. Also, the company was able to meet my time line to receive it before we moved.
12/10 another purchase from Leisure Piece I could NEVER regret. After a solid first order of another piece, and after so many compliments, I decided to find a second piece to compliment my home. The frame is high quality and I love the way the print sits in it. My home feels even more calm and serene. I will continue to recommend this to my friends thank you!
Store owner replied: Thank you Alyssa! So happy to see this :)
Very pleased with this piece. Photographer has a great collection and I will be looking to pick up some more.
Store owner replied: This looks amazing in your space. Thank you, Shaun!
Was so excited when my Leisure Piece finally arrived! It matches perfectly and looks so GOOD!!!
Love this picture, so dreamy! High quality and impressive.
Incredible high quality picture and frame, comes with everything necessary for an easy install!
Love everything I’ve bought here and wonderful customer service!
This is my fourth piece and I love them all! Also, the customer service especially from Eric is amazing!
Very nice! 🥰
My wife was thrilled with the photo. I swapped out a picture in our house with this one and my wife not knowing, and she noticed it right away!
Seamless experience from order to install! Highly recommend! I wish I had more wall space to order more!
I’ve had a relationship with a fine art framer AND printer for 20+ years and they can’t come close to matching the quality of Leisure Piece. Love them!
A+! Insane level of auality! I can’t stop buying them! 6 of them and still counting.
Great experience all the way!
LOVE IT! Just got the piece in the mail & it looks amazing. The quality of the framing & mounting is beautiful and I can definitely tell the difference between this and my cheap Ikea frames. Can't wait to order more!
Leisure Piece was so great! We love our new print! It is so fun! Thank you. We love it!
