About the Item

Blue-toned silkscreen portrait print of actress Marilyn Monroe by legendary photographer Bert Stern. The piece features a blue headshot portrait of Marilyn in blue on a metallic silver foil. Signed and editioned along the front lower margin. Currently hung in a white frame. Dimensions Without Frame: H 35.5 in. x W 35.5 in. Artist Biography: Bert Stern (1929-2013) began his career as a mailroom boy at Look Magazine. The launch of his career would coincide with his iconic and legendary campaign for Smirnoff Vodka in 1955. With the brilliance of that work, he became a star in the world of advertising. Editorial work followed and working for VOGUE put Bert Stern at the pinnacle of his career in the 1960’s. Sought-after by Madison Avenue, Hollywood, and the international fashion scene for decades, Stern became the prototype of the fashion photographer as the embodiment of glamour- a legend himself. Stern’s photographs have been exhibited at and/or are included in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Houston Museum of Fine Arts in Texas, The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in Canada, The J. Paul Getty Museum in California, the Musée Maillol in France, and the Hermitage Museum in Russia and many more.
