About the Item

Marilyn Looking Over Her Shoulder, 1962 Los Angeles, California - May 1962 Marilyn strikes a pose for Schiller’s camera during a break in filming at 20th Century Fox Studios on the set of Something’s Got to Give. Each of Lawrence Schiller's fine art photographs are available as signed, limited edition prints in several sizes ranging from 16” x 20” to 40” x 60” (paper size). Each print is hand-numbered and signed by the artist. Some of Schiller's photographs are also available as signed, limited edition dye sublimation prints on metal. Please inquire. About the photoshoot: Lawrence Schiller photographed Marilyn Monroe on the set of Something's Got to Give in May and early June of 1962. Due to multiple conflicts and publicity issues, Marilyn was soon fired from the film. Her co-star Dean Martin then refused to work with anyone else, and she was eventually rehired, given a raise, and returned to the set. Sadly, Marilyn died only a few weeks later, still in the process of shooting her scenes, and the film was never completed. This scene, had it been released, would have been the first time a major Hollywood star appeared nude on screen in a mainstream film. Marilyn initially planned to wear a bodystocking for the shoot, but instead simply wore only a flesh-toned bikini bottom. After the necessary filming was completed, she posed for the still shots shown here - which she knew would cause a media sensation when published, and ensure her lasting value to the Hollywood studios. Select images from this session were published in LIFE Magazine in the June 22, 1962 issue. About the artist: Lawrence Schiller is an American producer, screenwriter, and photographer best known for his candid photos of Marilyn Monroe. For almost 35 years, Schiller collaborated with Norman Mailer to create several films together, including Executioner's Song (1982), for which Mailer received the Pulitzer Prize. “I never considered myself a good photographer. I still don't,” he has said. “I thought of myself as a hard worker. My camera was a sponge and I had an instinct that athletes have—anticipation.” Born on December 28, 1936 in Brooklyn, NY, was raised in San Diego and attended Pepperdine College in Los Angeles. After graduating, he held photojournalist positions at Time, The Sunday Times, The Saturday Evening Post, and Newsweek. The artist later broke into the world of film by directing part of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in 1969 and Lady Sings the Blues in 1972. Over the course of his career, Schiller has captured images of several important and notorious figures in American history including Lee Harvey Oswald, Muhammad Ali, and Richard Nixon. He currently lives and works between Los Angeles, CA and New York, NY.
