1956 Taken on the Dutch village set used to film What Price Glory, the combination of costume and set gives Marilyn aindent wistful peasant appearance. Appropriately referred to as the 'Peasant' sitting, this series is one of The Archives favorites.indent Milton, inspired by the novel, The Brothers Karamazov (for which he'd optioned the film rights), wanted to convinceindent
Marilyn of her potential as a dramatic actress, a talent in which he passionately believed. To prove his point,indent he photographed Marilyn in this costume, worn by Jennifer Jones for her Oscarwinning performanceindent in The Song of Bernadette. This image has only been published once before, in Milton's Marilyn,indent and has never been previously exhibited.indent
