Description from the seller

Sam Shaw – Marilyn Monroe, New York 1957

In this iconic shot, taken by photographer Sam Shaw, Marilyn Monroe appears smiling and carefree as she leans from the roof of a New York building. The aerial view of the city contrasts with the diva's natural ease, simultaneously conveying elegance and freshness.

The photograph belongs to one of the famous New York sessions that helped fix Marilyn’s glamorous image, not only as a sex symbol but as a universal symbol of charm and modernity. The radiant face and spontaneous pose reveal Shaw’s ability to capture the star’s most authentic essence.

From a decorative standpoint, the poster lends itself perfectly to modern living rooms, urban-loft interiors, and vintage-industrial-styled spaces. With its balance of urbanity and pop icon, it gives rooms a refined, cinematic touch.

All our posters are printed on the original backing material, in the original edition and format.

These elements are key to distinguishing an authentic print from an unauthorized copy.
