Marilyn Monroe: A British Love Affair

Yesterday I took the day out to go and view some of the exhibition's that I have been blogging about. The first stop was the Marilyn Monroe exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery. It was fairly small but as well as beautiful pictures of Marilyn there is so much to see at the National Portrait Gallery a trip there will never be wasted. 

Marking just over 50 years since Marilyn's death the exhibition focuses mainly on her connections with England. Portrait's of Marilyn were on display by photographers Antony Beauchamp, Baron and of course Cecil Beaton. Mario Testino currently has an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, showing a series of photographs of the Royal Family -which is worth checking out.
