About the Item

Richard Burton & Peter O'Toole, 1963 (FOR LIFE MAGAZINE, HOLLYWOOD PHOTOGRAPHY) Vintage Portrait of Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole taken in 1963, photographed inside a 17th century pub in Shepperton, England for the Life Magazine story, "Some Very Winning Europeans." Milton took this image during the filming of "Becket." Hollywood & Fashion 1950's Photography 41 x 41 inches framed Edition 1 out of 7 $12,000 Archives' limited edition prints are all signed, stamped and authenticated by the estate of Milton H. Greene. Born in New York in 1922, Milton Greene began taking pictures at the early age of 14. Although he was the recipient of a scholarship to the renowned Pratt Institute, a heightened awareness of the photographic image diverted his attention to the camera and its versatility. He soon apprenticed himself to the famous photojournalist and wizard of composition, Elliot Elisofen. Before long, his keen regard for fashion and the camera found him assisting Louise Dahl-Wolfe, the distinguished fashion photographer known for her unique covers and fashion pages for Harper´s Bazaar. At the age of twenty-three, Milton was referred to as "Color Photography´s Wonder Boy". Milton’s photography traced the passage of an era through the world of Hollywood and fashion. The pages of Look, Life, Town and Country, Harper’s Bazaar, and Vogue, were filled with his classic fashion photographs and unforgettable portraits of our beloved artists, musicians, film, television, and theatrical celebrities which have become legendary. He was one of the preeminent photographers in the world and is credited along with other eminent photographers such as Richard Avedon, Cecil Beaton, Irving Penn, and Norman Parkinson, for bringing fashion photography into the realm of fine art. Although Greene was initially renowned for his high-fashion photography, it is his remarkable portraits of our most beloved artists, musicians, film, and television and theatrical celebrities, which have become legendary. It was Milton´s ability as a director that enabled him to capture the qualities that best personified the real person, making each of his pictures an eloquent, unique statement as he converted his remarkable vision into compelling photographic art. Milton believed that as an artist/photographer he wanted to capture people´s beauty, which was in the heart and to show people in an elegant and natural way. His gifts were in creating rapport in which to allow yourself to be seen, as well as his flawless timing. The range of Miltons’s subjects include such luminaries as Grace Kelly, Marlene Dietrich, Elizabeth Taylor, Marlon Brando, Cary Grant, Sammy Davis, Jr., Benny Goodman, Andy Warhol, Bette Davis, John F. Kennedy, Salvador Dali, Giacometti, Alfred Hitchcock, Richard Avedon, Keith Richards, Queen Elizabeth, Frank Sinatra, as well as many others. But it was his unique friendship, business relationship and ensuing photographs of Marilyn Monroe for which he is most fondly remembered. Milton first encountered Marilyn Monroe on assignment for Look Magazine. They quickly became close friends and ultimately formed their own film production company, which produced Bus Stop and The Prince and the Showgirl. Before marrying Arthur Miller, Monroe lived with Milton and his family in their Connecticut farmhouse. It was during this period that Greene was able to capture some of the most beautiful photographs ever taken of Marilyn Monroe, recording her moods, beauty, talent and spirits. During their ten years together, Greene photographed Monroe in countless photographic sessions including the famous "Black" sitting.
