The Pink Sensation Of Marilyn Monroe

Isn’t it amazing how much more detail you can see when a black and white picture is transformed with color? This 1952 snap taken by Harold Lloyd brought a steamy boudoir delight to Life Magazine subscribers. This would mark the beginning of a short but iconic working relationship. They would collaborate one more time, at Lloyd’s Greenacres home, this time for a swimsuit special. Monroe was grateful to spend the day at Lloyd’s lofty estate, where she could finally enjoy some privacy. Lloyd’s daughter had glowing praise for Monroe, saying “She was my age, or maybe a year or two younger, but we came from very different worlds. She sat down to put on her makeup, and we just started chatting about our lives. She insisted on seeing the baby and talked about how she dreamed of having a child of her own one day.”
