Clarice Benini’s Swan Song

Here is Clarice Benini participating in her last chess tournament. She’s seated in the first row at centre stage (wearing a solid colour dress and a string of white pearls around her neck) at the opening ceremony of the Seventh Annual Danlon Women’s International Tournament in Amsterdam, Netherlands on October 17, 1962.
