These brilliant limited edition photographs by Lawrence Schiller capture the eternal spirit of a true icon.
Hollywood starlet. Sex symbol. American icon. Marilyn Monroe’s status
as an enduring figure of glamour made her one of the most famous figures in
American history. Of all the images shot of the incomparable movie star, the most
iconic were these, taken by famed photographer, director and author, Lawrence
Schiller
Printed from film that was lost for decades, Schiller made only 75 editions of
these breathtaking photographs, and none will ever be created again. From the
1960 candid image shot during the filming of Let’s Make Love, to the legendary
poolside photoshoot on the set of “Something’s Got To Give” in 1962, each
image pays homage to the vibrant, unforgettable woman that was Marilyn Monroe
through the lens of a virtuoso.
We are honored to offer this exclusive, limited edition portfolio of 12 photographs
of Marilyn. Each photo measures 20 x 24 inches, of which 10 images are silver
gelatin prints and two are color photographs. Each image is numbered and
signed by Schiller and is housed in its custom leather case, which is also
signed and numbered. A very limited number of individual signed and numbered
photographs are also available.
