Seldom have female stars finding themselves in the public’s eye (and adoring gaze) knowingly played up to the camera as much as a certain femme fatale of Hollywood legend, namely Marilyn Monroe.
A complete natural in front of the lens, Monroe teased the camera from every angle, ensuring that it wasn’t just the photographic hardware that instantly fell in love with the controversial yet enduring star of the silver screen, but everyone from the cameraman, magazine editor, film director and studio owner to her massive audience at home, who she seemingly controlled with just one coquettish look or striking pose.
‘Polka Dot Umbrella, Torbay Beach, 1949’ is a photographic point in question, brought to us in association with one of the country’s leading fine art publishers, Washington Green, and, essentially, the biggest collector of Monroe imagery known to man, the contemporary figurative photography collector, Edward Weston. Indeed, it’s Weston’s name which is emblazoned across this brand new, limited edition giclee-mounted release launched this Spring, given that the original piece forms a critical part of his back catalogue of snapshots of Hollywood glamour from bygone eras.
