Milton Greene Captured Marilyn Monroe Insightfully
One of the most famous black and white photographs of Marilyn Monroe is the shot taken of her by Milton Greene. When people call this photo insightful, it is no exaggeration. It is one of the best pieces of Marilyn Monroe Art that you will find. In it, Marilyn’s face has almost a Mona Lisa quality about it. What exactly is the expression on her face conveying? Her head is raised as if she had, just a moment earlier, been bent over and about to cry. Is this expression, along with her white, tulle skirt an artful representation of perhaps a jilted bride? However, it could also simply be a casual yet unknowing glance. At any rate, the photo reflects a more vulnerable side of Marilyn.
