A newly unveiled collection of photographs, taken just days before Marilyn Monroe’s death in August 1962, captures the screen legend in a way the public rarely saw. Shot by acclaimed photographer Allan Grant, the images show Monroe in a softer, more introspective light, far from the polished glamour that defined her public persona.

Under the new format, the top two…
