Have a closer look at this original historic photo, which has never been edited.
This photograph from the 47th Academy Awards on April 8, 1975, captures Hollywood icons Jon Voight and Raquel Welch at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles. Voight, dressed in a classic black tuxedo, stands beside Welch, who stuns in a low-cut lavender gown. Both radiate the glamour of the era, standing in front of the iconic Oscar statue.
By 1975, Voight had already established himself with roles in films like Midnight Cowboy and Deliverance. Welch, known for her beauty and versatility, had become a major star with films like One Million Years B.C. and Fantastic Voyage. At the ceremony, the duo presented the Best Cinematography award.
This moment not only reflects their star power but also the elegance and prestige of the Oscars in the mid-1970s.
