Born in Transylvania in Austria-Hungary, de Dienes shot for many prestigious publishers including the Associated Press, Esquire, Vogue and Life magazines. In the mid-forties Dienes met the nineteen-year-old Marilyn Monroe (then called Norma Jeane Baker) who was a model on the books of Emmeline Snivelys Blue Book Model Agency. He became one of the first photographers to shoot the girl who would become the most famous woman of the 20th Century. The two would collaborate on several photo shoots until their last in 1961. This one captures a different shot of Marilyn stretching for Dienes camera. The offered photo is a period 1950's exemplar from Dienes that was made in the 1950's by his own hands!
The photo is a LARGE-format doubleweight example measuring a whopping 14 in height. It comes from his estate and comes with unmatched provenance. On the reverse is a photo credit stamp which was applied later by Dienes and a signature in script.
We can not confirm if the signature is that of Dienes but we can confirm that the photographic paper is a bonafide 1950's example that matches other Dienes photos in the collection with his 1950's credit stamp. Simply put, this is an extraordinary Marilyn Monroe photograph for the finest of Monroe collections. Thanks in advance for your professional courtesy and cooperation.
