Description

This is a black and white photo of Vida (née Daly) Breen with Prince Vittorio Massimo of Rome who was then the husband of the English actor Dawn Addams. Vida Breen was the wife of the film festival director, Dermot Breen, whom she married in 1952. In this picture Breen, wearing a light-coloured evening dress and matching jacket, is facing Massimo and smiling as he places a kiss on the back of her extended left hand.

Vittorio Massimo was from the princely house of Massimo, historically one of the great aristocratic families of Rome and a major patron of the arts. He was married to Dawn Addams from 1954 to 1971 and is the father of the photographer, Stefano Massimo, Prince of Roccasecca.
