"Marilyn's a phenomenon of nature, like Niagara Falls and the Grand Canyon. All you can do is stand back and be awed by it."
– Nunnally Johnson
(producer of How to Marry a Millionaire)
An exceptional investment for the discerning collector
Introducing a rare and profound look at Marilyn Monroe.
Offered as a Canadian Limited Edition print, this extraordinary photograph (the first in a series) of Marilyn Monroe was shot nearly sixty years ago by photographer Edwin (Eddie) Hodge.
"Marilyn & the Tea Cup" is one of several photographs taken by Hodge during the filming of "Niagara" - the largely overlooked and highly underrated film in Marilyn's career that can exclusively and justifiably be credited with starting the amazing trajectory that propelled her to mega-stardom.
This photo captures a very special and subdued moment that Marilyn shared with the Niagara Falls, Canada community. In retrospect, it was a tender moment in that it gives us a Marilyn that projects and speaks to the domesticity, warmth and intimacy of the family she direly yearned for but never had. "Marilyn & the Tea Cup" is also a milestone in the sense that it deviates substantially from the glitzy, sensuous and sexual imagery that flaunted the Marilyn created by her promoters and the press of the day.
