Isabella Garrucho Fine Art together with Fairfield County Antique and Design and Hästens are pleased to announce its newest exhibit featuring works of photographer Bert Stern. On Thursday, March 31, 2016 starting at 5:30 – 8:00PM, the cocktail reception for “In Bed with Marilyn,” will be hosted by Hästens Beds located at 21-23 East Putnam Avenue, Greenwich, CT.

Additional photographs of Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Gary Cooper, “Lolita” and other celebrities of the time will be on display at our 45 East Putnam Ave Showroom just a few doors down from Hästens.

Bert Stern conceived of his ultimate photographic romance with a vivacious woman on his flight to Rome in the spring of 1962. Stern spent three sessions with Marilyn Monroe shooting for Vogue Magazine in Los Angeles Hotel Bel-Air in late June 1962, six weeks before the great star's death. These sessions produced extraordinarily beautiful and unique images of Marilyn, known famously as ‘The Last Sitting.’

Money, power, and celebrity have made Stern almost as much of an icon as the famous faces he has photographed. Stern's career exemplifies the concept of the commercial photographer as a cultural hero. He has become the prototype of the fashion photographer as the embodiment of glamour.

This event features Bert Stern photographs presented by Isabella Garrucho Fine art, vintage mid century modern furnishings by Fairfield County Antique and Design and hosted by Hästens, the ultimate in luxury bedding which will be featuring their new spring line.
