MARILYN, 1956

Regular price $9,000.00 Sale

Marilyn Monroe in a black derby and not much else.

This image of Marilyn Monroe is from the series known as “The Black Sitting,” which remains the ultimate Monroe-Greene achievement. Marilyn was photographed before leaving for California to make Bus Stop in 1956. This evocative sitting was only shared with a hand full of close friends. The public did not see photographs from this sitting until 1973 when some selected images where printed in the Monroe/Mailer biography Marilyn: A Biography.

A fine art print on photographic paper in an edition of only 15 prints.

Seal of the photographer Milton H. Greene in the lower border.

Measures approx. 29 5/8" x 29 7/8" framed.
