William Carroll
William Carroll, "Norma Jeane #17", original photograph

1945, printed in 2010

About the Item

An original photograph printed from the original camera negative, shot by Bill Carroll in 1945, and printed in 2010. This image depicts a young Norma Jeane at the beginning of her career and long before she became the iconic Marilyn Monroe. This photo and the others from the series were taken on the beach off the Pacific Coast Highway, just north of Santa Monica, CA. This was the first photo-shoot in which Norma Jeane was paid to model; she received twenty dollars from Carroll. She brought her own wardrobe and did her own hair and make up. This piece is hand signed by the photographer. It is also numbered on the backside from the edition of 25 plus artist proofs and bears the "Andrew Weiss/ William Carroll" copyright stamp. This piece is unframed and measures 14 x 11 inches.
