Untitled - Marilyn (1981/1989)

Fine art offset lithograph, printed on high-quality “Satimatt” paper (250g/m2) by Arjomari, Paris. Certified in print at the top right and lower center (recto), not signed.  

'Untitled – Marilyn' by Cindy Sherman, originally created in 1981 and reproduced in 1989 as an offset print, is a striking piece within Sherman’s exploration of constructed female identities. In this work, Sherman adopts the persona of Marilyn Monroe, presenting a vulnerable yet iconic pose that mirrors Monroe’s complex public image. Dressed in casual clothing, the subject kneels on the floor with an expression balancing allure and uncertainty. The subdued colors and slightly unsteady posture emphasize Sherman’s critique of the glamorization and objectification of women in media and culture. Through this self-portrait, Sherman questions societal expectations of beauty and femininity, inviting the viewer to reconsider the portrayal of female figures in popular culture.
