Review `A design sensation in its own right ... a visual record of one of the world's greatest taste-makers's sense of style' -- handbag.com `Fascinating ... a book celebrating exceptional taste' -- Ten Magazine `The only place left to see the incredible trove of art amassed by Yves Saint Laurent and his long-term partner Pierre Berg�' -- GT Product Description The star pieces from fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent's art collection – including works by C�zanne, Picasso, Mondrian and Matisse – have been unveiled in the Grand Palais, Paris, ahead of what auctioneers have dubbed the art ‘sale of the century.’Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Berg� amassed the collection together before the designer’s death in June 2008. The works, which had adorned the pair’s Paris flats, the Chateau Gabriel in Normandy and their home in Morocco, include antiquities, Old Master and 19th-century paintings and drawings, Art Deco pieces and European furniture and art. Now Pierre Berg� has decided to sell the entire collection. It’s the end of an era and the sale has already excited enormous interest and speculation. This book shows, for the first time, the collection in situ in the pair’s homes. Although some pieces have been photographed separately in the past, they have never been photographed together, making this beautifully produced book the ultimate record of one of the 20th century’s great collections. Review `The only place left to see the incredible trove of art amassed by Yves Saint Laurent and his long-term partner Pierre Berg�' Review `Fascinating ... a book celebrating exceptional taste' Book Description Featuring the star pieces from fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent's art collection – including works by C�zanne, Picasso, Mondrian and Matisse From the Back Cover Yves Saint Laurent was more than a designer of clothing. He was, for many, simply one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century. The homes that he shared with his lifelong friend and business partner Pierre Berg� were extraordinary private cocoons of taste and style, and the pair amassed an exceptional collection of art over some forty years. It included important works by Picasso, Matisse and Mondrian, Old Master paintings by Goya, Ingres and G�ricault, and masterpieces of furniture, sculpture and silver from the Renaissance to Art Deco. Here, Ivan Terestchenko's photographs -taken after Yves Saint Laurent's death in 2008- capture these exquisite pieces in situ for the last time, prior to their sale by auction at the Grand Palais in Paris, an historic event that became the stuff of legend months before it even took place. This book, revealing a rare union of passion, taste and supreme connoirship, stands as a monument to two of the greatest taste-makers of our time.
