The beauty and the oud
Here is an interesting photo my friend posted.. I never seen this before. Seems Marilyn Monroe is holding a lute-guitar?

I did a bit of searching, there's not much information on this because it's from quite a rare photoset. It was shot by Milton Greene in the early
'50s; it seems that the lute [or whatever the instrument is], is just a prop for the shoot. It's quite a beautiful set though, you can find more by
Googling quite easily.
