Marilyn Monroe remains one of the most enduring cultural icons of the 20th century, a symbol of Hollywood glamour whose image transcends cinema and enters the realm of popular mythology.

The film sits at a crossroads between classic studio era stardom and a more modern, psychologically nuanced Hollywood.
This remarkable poster features artwork by Tom Chantrell, whose rendering of Monroe is widely regarded as the finest and most evocative portrayal of her to appear on any film poster.

Very rare and visually stunning, it is a standout piece that represents the absolute pinnacle of Monroe imagery and mid-century cinema design.
