The Last Sitting--Marilyn Monroe's Topless Pictures From Her Last Photoshoot Ever

These are vintage chromogenic pictures of Marilyn Monroe who, almost 50 years after her death in August of 1962, remains one of the most famed and celebrated icons in the world. The topless photos of Marilyn, collectively referred to as "The Last Seating", were snapped by photographer Bert Stern for Vogue Magazine in 1962 just six weeks before the platinum blonde mega diva was found dead at the age of 36 in her California home.

The famous prints which emerged recently, are scheduled to go up for auction on May 8th in New York.
