Marilyn Monroe Collage Famous person Acrylic on canvas pear (2021) Malerei von Mayya Batulina

It's SHE! A symbol of femininity, refinement, passion, and, at the same time, a symbol of vulnerability and vulnerability.
Marilyn Monroe is a wonderful American actress, singer, model, who conquered the whole world with her extraordinary charm and radiant beauty. Having risen to the top of her career from the very bottom, she became the living embodiment of the"American dream". The untimely departure of the actress, who was at the peak of her fame, became a real tragedy for her many fans. 

This picture is a tribute to Marilyn, a tribute of admiration for Her beauty and regret for all the twists and turns that have occurred in Her life.
It is known that She did not like diamonds, but used diamond jewelry during performances. Her favorite piece of jewelry was a modest string of pearls. Therefore, in this picture, I want to give Marilyn Her favorite decoration.

To represent some important moments from Marilyn's life, the image is surrounded by appropriate photos.
Herein below there are all the photos from the painting described, starting from the upper-left corner clockwise.

1. The first marriage.
Norma Jean got married for the first time, barely reaching the age of 16. Her chosen one turned out to be a neighbor's guy-20-year-old Jim Doherty.
The first tender feelings of a girl who was so eager to find a family faded as soon as she faced a serious choice: a brilliant career in Hollywood or a mediocre life with her husband. Dougherty flatly refused to let his young wife go to photo shoots and auditions, and Monroe was so inspired by the idea of becoming famous that it was simply impossible to keep her married. As a result, their paths parted forever.

2. At the age of 17, Norma gets a job as a riveter. It was the Padioplane aircraft factory. He works conscientiously, without showing off and not standing out. The Second World War is in full swing, and American magazines are trying in every possible way to glorify the American army.
One day, photographers come to the factory where Monroe works to find girls for propaganda photos. This is how the Norm becomes a model.

3. The second marriage. Joe DiMaggio
The best baseball player in America and the most seductive American actress — this couple simply could not remain without attention! They were a symbol of the country, so the quick marriage only pleased the fans of both. However, a beautiful picture often hides an unsightly truth: Maggio turned out to be not just a jealous man, but a terrible owner.
But, oddly enough, it is DiMaggio who is called the only man who actually fell in love with Monroe! After the divorce, Marilyn maintained friendly relations with her ex-husband. Over the years, they talked, sometimes recalled the past, and Joe again suggested that the actress get together.
Once, Monroe jokingly made a promise from her former lover to send roses to her grave every week. As a result, after her death, DiMaggio brought fresh flowers to the actress ' tombstone 3 times a week. And after the death of the baseball player himself, flowers on his behalf for 20 years were delivered to the cemetery by the owner of the flower shop "Parisian Florist" Louis, from whom DiMaggio always ordered bouquets for Marilyn. They say that the last phrase of Joe DiMaggio was the following: "At last I will see Marilyn"…

4. Pregnancy
Monroe has always treated children with special trepidation. She really wanted to become a mother. Doctors diagnosed the actress with endometriosis, which prevented the realization of her dreams. Evil tongues claimed that numerous abortions of the film star were to blame, but there is no confirmation of the rumors. Anyway, all celebrity pregnancies ended in miscarriages. The famous blonde was extremely hard to bear losses and plunged into a depressive state. She never became a mother.

5. Injuries
Marilyn has injured her legs more than once. For example, the left one was seriously injured on the set of the film "The River does not flow backwards". Then Monroe sprained her ankle.

6. Failures in the cinema
Due to the use of sleeping pills, Marilyn often woke up shooting, and when she woke up, she was afraid to go out. She tormented the film crew with new and new takes, because she forgot the words or could not get used to the role. Film shooting because of all this became a living hell. So Marilyn earned herself a bad reputation among directors and some actors precisely because of the "lack of professionalism".

7. The third marriage. Arthur Miller.
Marriage for crazy love can be called the third official registration of relations for Marilyn. Monroe wanted to spend the rest of her life with Arthur Miller: the famous playwright, intellectual, adult experienced man admired the actress and seemed to be the main authority. And for Miller, Marilyn was a celestial, a girl from TV, a brilliant and unique star. Arthur told the press that he was not sorry to die next to such a woman. But, unfortunately, all this was only at the beginning of the relationship…
When the first raptures of the" candy-bouquet " period subsided, Miller realized that he had married an ordinary woman, who, moreover, is full of fears, self-doubt, complexes, often falls into depression and absolutely does not love herself. Such a Marilyn burdened and irritated a man.
The actress tried to save the marriage as best she could.
Besides, she dreamed so much about a child! Alas, the long-awaited pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. And the relationship with her husband deteriorated completely. The" last straw " for Monroe was an entry that she found in Miller's diary: "It seems to me that she is a small child, I hate her!".

8. The frame from the film "The Itch of the seventh Year" (The Seven Year Itch), when the wind blew up Marilyn's skirt, exposing her legs, became one of the most famous not only in the career of the actress, but also in the culture of the XX century as a whole — and played a fatal role in the personal life of the star (provoked a divorce from Joe DiMaggio).

9. This photo tells not a specific moment, but rather the constant persecution of Marilyn by journalists and fans.

10. «Happy Birthday, Mr. President»
Marilyn thought through the congratulations on the anniversary of President Kennedy to the smallest detail. Including her outfit — for the number, the Oscar-winning designer Jean Louis created for her a very frank transparent narrow dress, studded with thousands of rhinestones.
Standing behind the microphone stand, Monroe looked completely naked — for those times it was a real challenge and, as everyone understood, a very frank statement about her attitude to the president. And to be more precise, not just a statement, but a real recognition. 
Marilyn Monroe was loved for her sensuality and ability to do everything seductively, and Monroe would not be Monroe if she changed her ubiquitous coquetry — even Kennedy himself gratefully mentioned that "after this, you can safely leave politics."
This performance was one of the last appearances of Marilyn Monroe in public - in 3 months she will die under mysterious circumstances.
