this image isn't mine I don't want to be accused of ripping off an artist or anything Blush
I've been wondering if this is modelled on anyone, initially I thought Liz Taylor but now I think not.
What do you think? It's something I saw in a gallery and it's stuck in my head waiting for a name.

It looks to me like an amalgamation of Liz Taylor and Marilyn Monroe.

RampantIvy · 07/08/2021 22:03

Sophia Loren?

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 07/08/2021 22:03

Liz Taylor was my first thought.

FrankiesKnuckle · 07/08/2021 22:04

Marilyn surely?

Classica · 07/08/2021 22:05

She looks like a cross between Marilyn and Gina Lollobrigida

Whingey · 07/08/2021 22:07

Audrey Hepburn?

Gardenwalldilema · 07/08/2021 22:07

Wow, I didn't expect any replies!

@Classica

I’m inclined to agree with this.
augustusglupe · 07/08/2021 22:09

It looks like Marilyn

Hepzibar · 07/08/2021 22:10

Jane Russell

RampantIvy · 07/08/2021 22:11

@Whingey

Audrey Hepburn?
Absolutely nothing like her at all.
TellingBone · 07/08/2021 22:13

Is it The Connor Brothers?

They do a lot of works like this - I don't think they're based upon any particular person; rather the style of the time.

Sarahlou63 · 07/08/2021 22:13

I thought Gina Lollobrigida but was too scared to try and spell it. Blush

CheerfulBunny · 07/08/2021 22:13

From the hair and boobs, I'd say Sophia Loren too.

WhistlersandJugglers · 07/08/2021 22:15

Do you know who the artist is?

waltzingparrot · 07/08/2021 22:22

I can see Joan Collins - a bit.

Gardenwalldilema · 07/08/2021 22:22

@TellingBone yes it is one of theirs, I didn't realise it was an amalgamation, some of their other pieces look more like specific people to me, but maybe I just convince myself of that Grin

I thought JoanCollins too!

Pinkginlover · 07/08/2021 22:28

Well - I don't know that much about them so you may be right for all I know!

I just recalled seeing similar types of 'pin-up' or glamour girl 50s/60s style prints from them.

twinsagain77 · 07/08/2021 22:32

Social Loren.

MrsMoastyToasty · 07/08/2021 22:37

Sophia Loren
Or possibly Stockard Channing (as Rizzo in Grease).

Clawdy · 07/08/2021 22:55

Really cannot see Stockard Channing there.

BitsAndBaubles · 07/08/2021 22:57

I see a but of Stockard Channing from Grease

changeyourname11111 · 07/08/2021 23:33

I vote Joan Collins
