This is a matted photo by listed photographer André de Dienes. He is noted for shooting Marilyn Monroe and other celebrities and is famous for his nudes. Three books of his nudes were published. His photos sell for thousands. I purchased a box of his contact sheets that also contained some small photos from an estate. I am listing the contact sheet photos in other listings.

THIS PHOTO WAS MATTED BY JIM MARSHALL'S FRAMER. IT HAS AN ARCHIVAL MAT THAT IS HINGED. THE SIZE OF THE MAT IS 11" X 14" TO MAKE IT EASY TO FRAME.

ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER FROM WIKIPEDIA: Andor György Ikafalvi-Dienes (born, December 18, 1913 – April 11, 1985), known as André de Dienes, was a Hungarian photographer, noted for his work with Marilyn Monroe and his nude photography. As well as Monroe, Dienes also photographed such notable actors as Elizabeth Taylor, Marlon Brando, Henry Fonda, Shirley Temple, Ingrid Bergman, Ronald Reagan, Jane Russell, Anita Ekberg, and Fred Astaire. THE LAST PHOTO IS OF ONE OF HIS BOOKS (NOT INCLUDED)

In recent years, Dienes' photography has received overdue critical attention from a variety of sources. In 2002, Taschen published an 848-page two-volume monograph titled Marilyn, noting "his original, inspired style" and how Dienes "soon built up a huge portfolio of stunning photographs of the smiling brunette which helped to launch her model career and, a few years later, a film career that was to make her a legend."[6] An exhibition, entitled "André de Dienes: Marilyn and California Girls," opened June 9, 2016 at the Steven Kasher Gallery in New York City, representing the first solo show of Dienes' photography in New York in over ten years.
