William Carroll
Norma Jeane #23

1945

About the Item

This piece is 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 and dated 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.

Milton Greene, "05" from The Pekingese Dog Sitting
By Milton Greene
Located in Chatsworth, CA
This piece is a pigment print from the original negative, shot by Milton Greene in 1955. This photograph of Marilyn Monroe is from a photoshoot which became known as "The Pekingese Dog Sitting" because Marilyn was accompanied by her hair stylist's dog during other photographs from the same series. Marilyn was shot in a gorgeous Bill Blass gown which became an integral part of the series. This black gown juxtaposed with the stark red background make these photographs hard to forget. These photographs were seen for the first time in 2013 after being locked away and unpublished for over 50 years until Andrew Weiss Gallery...
