Marilyn
Monroe

Actress

Admire the wax figure of Marilyn Monroe, the greatest female icon of classic Hollywood cinema and universal symbol of sensuality, glamor, and mystery.

Born in 1926 as Norma Jeane Mortenson, she rose to fame in the 1950s with films such as “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” and “Some Like It Hot”. The impact of her image as an innocent and seductive blonde bombshell was epoch-making. Beyond the movies, she was a complex woman with a turbulent personal life and a great desire to be recognized as a serious actress. She died prematurely in 1962, leaving an unforgettable legacy. Interesting fact: she was a passionate reader with a personal library that housed over 400 books, many on philosophy, poetry, and politics.
