marilyn monroe famous picture?!?

This is a really famous photograph… is there any type of story behind it? anything at all.. Thanks in advance… i put the link below if ure not sure what photo im talking bout..

It’s a publicity shot done in 1954 by Matthew Zimmerman during the filming of ‘The Seven Year Itch’. The location is New York.

The whole shot is a set-up. The updraft from the grate was from a large fan and the lighting was full frontal on camera flash. The light rimming her hair and right shoulder was a hot (incandescent) spot and the light at her feet that illuminates the grate was a hot baby spot. The people in the background are all props for the picture to support the impression of it being a spontaneous shot. At least that’s how I remember Zimmerman explaining the shot in an interview somewhere.

The photographer in the background is actually a laugh. What it looks like he is focussing through is really a three sided pop-up metal light shield to make focusing by looking down on the focusing screen easier to use. The twin lens reflex cameras in those days were shot from waist level. The eye level prisms to repalce the screens didn’t come tilll later.

It’s a great shot of Marilyn and a fantastic shot to study lighting from.
