MARILYN MONROE, SIMONE SIGNORET, AND HENRI MILLER - Lot 284
MARILYN MONROE, SIMONE SIGNORET, AND HENRI MILLER During the Signoret-Montand couple’s stay in the U.S., 1960. Photo by Nate Cutler, vintage silver gelatin print, stamped by the photographer and annotated on the back. 20.5 x 25.4 cm, including white borders. One edge shows signs of handling. Note: This photograph, taken in 1960 by Nate Cutler, features Marilyn Monroe, Simone Signoret, and writer Henry Miller during the American visit of Simone Signoret and Yves Montand. This encounter took place against a particularly famous backdrop in film history, as Montand was filming George Cukor’s *Let’s Make Love* (*Le Milliardaire*) alongside Marilyn Monroe. The presence of Simone Signoret, an actress already recognized internationally, and Henry Miller, a major figure in 20th-century American literature, lends this image an exceptional cultural significance. It bears witness to the close ties that then united the worlds of cinema, literature, and the arts between Europe and Hollywood. Directed by Nate Cutler, this vintage print is a valuable document of the international artistic and intellectual life of the early 1960s, bringing together three iconic figures of their time.
