Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 12, 2011

The world was unprepared for the moment when Marilyn Monroe jumped in the swimming pool in a flesh-colored bikini and came out of the water au natural.

She was radiantly smiling and in her element: the sex goddess, posing for eternity. Two months after celebrating her birthday on this film set, Marilyn died.

These legendary images that survived (Marilyn would cut up the negatives she didn’t like) have been displayed in New York, China, Bulgaria, Salzburg, Berlin, Miami and London. The photographs are now available in Los Angeles at Duncan Miller Gallery.
