17 Gorgeous Pics Of Marilyn Monroe On The Beach Taken In 1957 By Sam Shaw

Sex, love, and beauty. Those were probably words that described Marilyn Monroe best during the ’50s and ’60s. The symbol of the sex of that time, she had achieved many things at the young age of 36 as an actress, singer, and model. Unfortunately, she died from an overdose at the age of 36 and many argue if that is her true cause of death.

Sam Shaw, the photographer of these pictures, was a close friend of Marilyn. These pictures were taken one month before she experienced miscarriage. Sam was also responsible for many of Marilyn’s best and vulnerable moments, but these photoshoots by the beach were probably her best.

Green Lemon can’t stop marveling in her beauty even if she didn’t have all the perfect figure of a woman! Yet, she managed to be one of the loveliest ladies of her time.
