About the Item
This piece is a cibachrome print from the original transparency, shot by Milton Greene in 1953. Marilyn Monroe collaborated with Milton Greene in September of 1953 for this photoshoot, shortly after she finished filming for her hit film, "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes". After Monroe saw the proofs from this shoot, she was blown away. She sent two dozen roses and a letter to Greene, stating that the images were the most beautiful she had ever seen. However, these rare photographs were passed over and remained unpublished until 2013 when Andrew Weiss Gallery acquired the original negatives and rights.
This piece bears the Milton H. Greene stamp on the backside, as well as the Andrew Weiss Gallery stamp. It is also numbered on the backside from the edition of 50. This piece measures 30 x 30 inches and is unframed.
