thecinamonroe:Marilyn Monroe photographed by Richard Avedon in New York, on May 6, 1957.“For hours she danced and sang and flirted and did this thing that’s—she Marilyn Monroe. And then there was the inevitable drop. And when the night was over and the white wine was over and the dancing was over, she sat in the corner like a child, with everything gone. I saw her sitting quietly without expression on her face, and I walked towards her but I wouldn’t photograph her without her knowledge of it. And as I came with the camera, I saw that she was not saying no.” — Richard Avedon about this portrait. -- source link
