Marilyn Monroe’s Seven Year Itch may be the most iconic image of the 20th century.
Marilyn Monroe posters are framed and featured anywhere from dorm rooms to upscale hotel lobbies. But knowing the stories behind the most famous photos really brings these images to life. We did some digging and uncovered the backstories of some of the greatest photographs of Marilyn Monroe.
Everyone has a favorite movie, whether it’s a big-budget blockbuster or a little-known gem. In today’s post, we shine the spotlight on niche motion pictures that have stood the test of time. Break out the popcorn! You’ll find the most popular cult films in our Cult Movie Posters category, of course, along with oodles of obscure B-movies. The archives include many vintage horror movie posters like this Boris Karloff Mummy movie poster, which is similar to an original poster that’s headed to a Sotheby’s auction, with a rather lofty target price of $1.5 million.
There are milestones and then there are MILESTONES. Holy cow, where did the time go? Today we celebrate the 60th birthday of the best selling female recording artist of all time, with a smashing selection of Madonna Wall Art. Madonna Louise Ciccone was born on August 16th, 1958, in Bay City, Michigan. She migrated to the Big Apple in 1978 to follow her dream and we are forever grateful. Her first album, Madonna, was released in 1983. A remarkable string of hit albums and singles followed. Like a Virgin, Vogue, and Take a Bow broke new ground.
No matter who you are, no matter what you did, no matter where you’ve come from, you can always change, become a better version of yourself.”
– Madonna

Norma Jeane Mortenson was born on June 1, 1926 into a broken home in Los Angeles, California. She married three times, the first at just sixteen years of age. Her first husband, Jim Dougherty, was a neighbor. The marriage didn’t last long. After a brief stint as a model, Norma Jeane changed her name to Marilyn Monroe and had her first taste of Hollywood fame in The Asphalt Jungle (1950). FramedArt’s selection of Marilyn Monroe prints spans her career. No star has ever burned as brightly, before or since.
