The monumental body of work by the master photographer and the Hollywood actress marks a climax in the history of star photography, both in quantity and quality.

Top-Star unter den amerikanischen Mode- und Werbephotographen der 60er Jahre, war der letzte, dem Marilyn, sechs Wochen vor ihrem Tod, einen Phototermin bewilligte. Corners pushed, small puncture tear to lower front corner of jacket, lower corner of final pages curling a little and showing previous usage wear, bright and unmarked, very secure binding.TEXT IN GERMAN pictorial slipcase 2586 Photographien, davon 372 in Farbe, 464 Seiten, GroBformat; Text in German. Im Juni 1962 im Bel-Air Hotel in Los Angeles entstandener "groß angelegter Porträtzyklus mit Marilyn Monroe, . Some of the photos truly are beautiful, but it's absolutely impossible to enjoy this book for all of Bert Stern's disgusting descriptions of what's gone on during the shoot. Slipcase Condition: Good, pictorial covers, foot of spine torn, top edge age-toned, age-toned extremities, bumped edges, rubbed covers, lightly chipped corners.

The shoot captured the nation’s imagination and has since inspired countless spreads, including a 2008 cover shoot featuring Lindsay Lohan in New York Magazine, photographed by Stern himself. Book Condition: Very good, light shelf wear, head and tail of spine tanned, good binding, clean body and unmarked text.I also have lots of contempt for Stern for having published the photographs that Marilyn didn't approve of and had marked up. Die Lust am Spiel mit sich selbst in immer wieder neuen Rollen bleibt trotz mancher ernster Momente durchgängig spürbar, und so entstand zugleich ein einmaliges Dokument über die Erotik des Photographierens.

Beginning today, visitors to the Paris exhibition hall (and car dealer) DS World can experience the elegance and vulnerability of Stern’s series in the exhibition “ Marilyn, the Last Sitting,” on view until January 6, 2018.Bert Stern looks back on that momentous sitting, offering a revealing, naked portrait of Marilyn the person -- of a vulnerable, confused woman who although at the apex of her career, had relinquished control of her life -- and of the fashion world of the early 1960s, with its new openness towards drugs, sex, and art. From the glamorous, sophisticated photos which Vogue would publish in a black-and-white "memorial" spread, to the less restrained color shots which Stern coaxed out of Marilyn during an intense, exhausting session, this collection covers nearly every aspect of modern photography: portraiture, fashion-driven, erotic, and artistic. But if you take the commentary with a grain of salt, it's a fascinating and oddly heartbreaking series of photos.

With a photo shoot that took place in 1962 just weeks before the actress’ death, Stern later compiled his image into the photobook Marilyn Monroe: The Complete Last Sitting, first published in 1982. But more than a comprehensive display of Stern's immeasurable talents, these photographs combine to create an homage to America's first goddess.In seinem Vorwort erzählt Bert Stern vom Zustandekommen und Verlauf dieses ungewöhnlichen Phototermins. It was like a bomb had gone off, bottles of champagne all over, Marilyn’s shoes in the corner, an overturned champagne bottle.
