In 1962, photographer Bert Stern shot a series of photos of Marilyn Monroe that have collectively come to be known as The Last Sitting. Taken during several boozy sessions at the Hotel Bel-Air, the photographs are arguably the most famous images ever captured of Americas most famous actress: Monroe, sleepy-eyed and naked, sips from a Champagne glass, enacts a fan dance of sorts with various diaphanous scarves, romps with erotic playfulness on a bed of white linens. Six weeks after she had posed, Monroe was found dead of an apparent barbiturate overdose.
