Marilyn Monroe - The Dom Perignon Sitting 1962 RARE ( Bert Stern )

1962 June - Marilyn agreed for a new 3-days session, and Stern went back to Los Angeles. Marilyn arrived at 7.00 PM, 5 hours late, but in 3 sessions, staggered on 2 weeks at the Bel Air Hotel, since June 23rd 1962, he took near 2 700 pictures (portraits, fashion pictures photos de mode, nudes). Pat Newcomb asked Stern to buy 3 bottles of Dom Perignon 1953 champagne for Marilyn. When Marilyn arrived, he found her beautiful, simple, normal, not at all as a Hollywood unapproachable movie star. The first time the pictures were taken in the suite 261 of the Bel Air Hotel. For the 2 other sessions, Stern reserved the bungalow n° 96. ---- NOTE ----- All images are from my Marilyn Monroe Collection.
