What really struck Beaton was Marilyn's ability to keep transforming herself, to give the photographer a thousand variations of herself. "This photograph is just such an improvisation. Marilyn pulled this carnation from a bouquet to put in her mouth like a cigarette, only later lying on a sofa to place the flower on her breast in a gesture of protection and gift." "She has rocketed from obscurity to become our post-war sex symbol, the pin-up girl of an age," Beaton wrote.11mon

welovemarilyn@_danimaia Try Amazon or eBay, included Cecil Beaton in the search, but what I did was I cut the photo (bottom right) out of a Marilyn biography, placed it in a frame and now have it hanging on my wall.
