Artist: Cecil Beaton (English, 1904 - 1980). Title: "Marilyn Monroe 1956 #2". Medium: Original vintage photogravure. Date: Composed 1956. Printed 1968. Dimensions: Image size: 7 7/8 x 7 3/8 in. (200 x 187 mm).Lot Note(s): Stamped with the photographer's name, verso. Edition unknown, presumed small. High-grade archival paper. Printed to the edge of the sheet. Fine, quality printing. Very good to fine condition; affixed to very thin and supple archival acid-free support sheet, not mount/board. Comment(s): One from the famous series of photographs taken by Beaton of Monroe at the height of both of their storied careers. Although associated with ‘Vogue’ through most of his career, Beaton’s 'Monroe' portfolio appeared in ‘Harper’s Bazaar’, for which he worked in the mid-1950s. It was while in New York for the rehearsals and premiere of ‘My Fair Lady’ that Beaton photographed Monroe. With a possibility that he would be the designer of Monroe’s dresses for ‘The Prince and The Showgirl’, Beaton arranged a photography sitting in his suite in the Ambassador Hotel in New York City on 22 February 1956. Ed Pfizenmaier, Beaton’s assistant, noted that Monroe did her own make-up and ‘came just by herself, with these two little dresses… it was as simple as that.’ Beaton later recalled ‘She romps, she squeals with delight, she leaps on the sofa. She puts a flower stem in her mouth, puffing on a daisy as though it were a cigarette. It is an artless, impromptu, high-spirited, infectiously gay performance. It will probably end in tears.’ The session produced one of Monroe’s favorite portraits, which hung in her New York apartment that she shared with her third husband, Arthur Miller.

§ Salvador Dali (Spanish 1904-1989) for Royal Crown Derby 'Pink Glove' Plate, circa 1938 manufacturer's printed and impressed marks, Christies paper label(23cm diameter (9in diameter))Footnote: Provenance: Edward James Collection; Christies, London, Edward James Collection , 2-6 June 1986; John Jesse, London; Private Collection, UK; Literature: Britain Magazine, 4 December 2009; Ghislaine Wood (ed.), Surreal Things: Surrealism & Design , V&A, London, 2007, pp.282-3. The unique 'Pink Glove' tea service was designed by Dali on a visit to London in 1936, having been commissioned by the poet, artist and collector of Surrealist works Edward James for his extraordinary Surrealist house Monkton. As noted by the V&A from previously unknown correspondance between James and the decorating firm Green and Abbott in 1938, the 'pink glove tea set' is mentioned alongside the 'Lobster' telephone, 'Mae West Lips' sofa and 'Torso' chest of drawers all known to have been conceived by Dali. Edward James specially commissioned the set from Royal Crown Derby and it was sold in the Edward James Collection at Christies in 1986 where it was bought by the renowned dealer John Jesse. Jesse subsequently sold pieces to the Royal Crown Derby Museum and to the V&A in the sale of his collection at Sotheby's New Bond Street, London on 22 February 2006. This plate is one of only a couple of pieces from the set still known to be in private hands.
