Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe in New York City, circa 1957


Captured by Sam Shaw, iconic actress Marilyn Monroe is seen with her then-husband, renowned playwright Arthur Miller, standing in front of a backdrop of the Queensboro Bridge in New York City. Arthur Miller, attired in spectacles and a suit of light hue with a cravat of darkest night, stands with purpose, his finger outstretched towards something unseen that lies beyond the frame. His brow is furrowed, and his gaze fixed with the intensity of a scholar deep in contemplation. Marilyn Monroe, clad in a gown of purest white, its edges adorned with delicate scallops that mimic the seashore, rests her arm gently upon her husband’s back. Her visage is graced with a hint of a smile, her lips slightly parted and her classic beauty evident.
