Description from the seller

Sam Shaw – Marilyn Monroe, backstage in the 1950s

This famous photograph of Marilyn Monroe, taken by photographer Sam Shaw, immortalizes the actress in the intimate moment of preparation, as she applies makeup in front of the mirror. The image highlights the private side of the diva, distant from the spotlights but always radiant and full of charm.

The intense black and white emphasizes the contrasts and gives the scene an aura of timeless elegance. Shaw, who followed Marilyn through many moments of her career, manages here to capture not only the iconic beauty but also the vulnerability and concentration of the woman behind the myth.

As a decor piece, this poster is ideal for refined and modern spaces, such as bedrooms, studios, or creative spaces. It brings with it an elegant and intimate atmosphere, enriching the room with a touch of cinema history and Hollywood glamour.

All our posters are printed on the original stock, in the original edition and format. These elements are essential for distinguishing an authentic print from an unauthorized copy.
