Measurements: 150 x 150 cm; 154 x 154 cm (frame). Alexanco studied drawing and engraving with Manuel Castro Gil at the Casa de la Moneda, in Madrid, and in 1960 he enters the School of Fine Arts.

The last sitting is a collection of 2,571 photographs taken of Marilyn Monroe in 1962 at the Bel-Air Hotel in Los Angeles. This reportage was taken six months before her death and part of it was published in Vogue. The first edition of the book The Last Sitting was published in 1982 and in it Stern recounts the encounter in detail. Bert Stern began working as an art assistant to director Herschel Bramson. In 1951 he joined Mayfair magazine as art director and soon began collaborating with magazines such as Vogue, Squire, Look, Life, Glamour and Holiday. Among his works from that period is a 1959 portrait of Louis Armstrong taken for a Polaroid advertising campaign that was even considered too high quality for Polaroid. In the early seventies he closed his studio and moved to live in Spain until 1976. After his return to New York he dedicated himself to advertising photography and magazine collaborations. Among the famous women he has photographed are Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Drew Barrymore, Shirley MacLaine, Claudia Cardinale, Jacqueline Bisset, Brigitte Bardot and Catherine Deneuve.
