One of the most recognizable images of Marilyn Monroe, this image taken by Tom Kelley depicts the young actress posing nude on red velvet.

Beautiful and alluring, “Pose #2” captures a rare moment frozen in time.

Executed in 1949 and printed later, this Fuji Crystal Light Jet mounted on aluminum is signed and numbered one hundred and fifty-six from an edition of three hundred. From the artist’s “Red Velvet” series, the work was published by Pacific Licensing, California and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The overall dimensions are 28 x 22 inches. Excellent original condition.

Kelley moved to California in 1935 where he established a photography studio in Hollywood, producing promotional photographs of movie stars. He is best known for his iconic nude photographs of Marilyn Monroe, which were distributed widely as calendar art, one of which was featured in the inaugural issue of Playboy Magazine (1953). Some of his most famous subjects have included Gary Cooper, Greta Garbo, James Cagney, Clark Gable, Winston Churchill, Bob Hope, Marlene Dietrich, Joan Crawford, Jack Benny, David Bowie, John F. Kennedy, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Franklin D. Roosevelt.
