A chromogenic print of Marilyn Monroe by photographer George Barris. Barris was famous for his work with Monroe, whom he photographed on the set of The Seven Year Itch, before producing a collection of photos which have come to be known as "The Last Shoot", as they were shot shortly before Monroe passed away.

The photo was taken on Santa Monica beach and shows Monroe lying on the sand wrapped in a thick knit sweater. This framed print was produced and signed by Barris in 1987. "A.P." is handwritten in ink on the Barris copyright credit stamp on the reverse and was officially published by Marilyn Monroe/West Editions, Ltd. The photo has several tiny pinholes along the upper left edge. Dimensions (framed): 61 cm x 66 cm x 2.5 cm (24.5" x 26" x 1")

Sold without copyright; see copyright notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: £2,500 - 5,000 †
