Marilyn Monroe vamping in a black sequin dress for photographer Richard Avedon in New York, May 6, 1957 Avedon stated about this session: “There was no such person as Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn Monroe was an invention of hers. A genius invention that she created, like an author creates a character. So when Marilyn Monroe put on a sequin dress and danced in the studio—I mean for hours she danced and sang and flirted, and did this thing. There is no describing what she did, she did Marilyn Monroe . . .” No marks on reverse. Kodak paper. 11 by 14 inches Categories: Marilyn Monroe
