Description
Much photographed during her lifetime, Marilyn has since been a constant source of inspiration to artists, from Andy Warhol and noted fine artists to the graphic studios who mass produced greeting cards bearing her likeness. Some see her as the public saw her - sensual, half-open mouth, dreaming eyes, heavy, always just-covered breasts. To others, she is the subject of fantasy - bizarre, erotic, expressionistic - an emblem of pure sex, or the embodiment of the wholesome American Dream.
It is the work of these artists that are presented here from around the world, a true testament to her global impact. These portraits exercise artistic licence to the full, but in which there is little that does not connect at some point with the original model in all her fascination, a unique and universal fascination which, forty three years after her death, shows no sign of diminishing.
Note alle condizioni del volume
Usato condizioni accettabili, il volume, proveniente da biblioteca di pittore, presenta sporadiche macchie di pittura ad olio sia alla copertina che all'interno, macchie che non pregiudicano la fruibilità del volume; sulla tavola relativa ll'opera di Joshua Logan è stata tracciata dal precedente proprietario una griglia di copiatura a pastello bianco e rosso, la pagina è stata staccata dal volume e riattaccata con scotch carta, avendo cura di non coprire l' immagine che rimane perfettamente fruibile, gli angoli di alcune pagine sono stati piegati come segnalibro.
