William Carroll
Bill Carroll/George Barris, "First and Last Diptych, " original photographs

1945/1962

About the Item

This piece is comprised of two original photographs, from the original negatives, by George Barris and Bill Carroll, framed side by side. These photographs represent the first and last photos ever taken of American icon, Marilyn Monroe. The photograph on the left by William Carroll was taken off the Pacific Coast Highway at Castle Rock in 1945, which was the first photo-shoot in which Marilyn Monroe (then Norma Jeane) was paid to model. The photograph on the right by George Barris is from a series entitled The Last Photos, which was taken on Santa Monica Beach in 1962 just two weeks before Monroe's death. Each photograph measures 5 x 7 inches and the framed dimensions are 14.5 x 19.25 inches. Both photographs are hand signed by the respective artists and are numbered from an edition of 12 plus Artist Proofs.
