Marilyn Monroe on Tobay Beach

By any chance, is the photo below one of the ones he took of Marilyn Monroe at Tobay Beach? ---------User:DanTD (talk) 16:41, 15 March 2022 (UTC)Reply


 
Because I just started a commons category for Tobay Beach today, and I want to be sure this pic belongs there.

"Hungarian" photographer? Not American photographer?

edit

In the very first sentence, the article defines Andre de Dienes as a "Hungarian photographer", but that is neither accurate nor how he seems to have viewed himself. Certainly for the period of time he is famous for, he was fully American, doing work in America. If one wanted to be more exact than "American photographer", one could say he was an "American, born in Transylvania". Yes, Transylvania was nominally part of the Hungarian Kingdom, so technically one could call him "Hungarian", but that was true only until he was five and a half. For his formative years, Transylvania was Romanian. And, last but not least, yes, his birth name, before he changed it to French, is of Hungarian origin, so he is likely of Hungarian ancestry. But, I question why his ethnicity is relevant to note in the first sentence of his Wikipedia article. 24.16.239.30 (talk) 04:26, 25 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
