Synopsis

In this lavish volume, enjoy detailed views of the eight splendid homes Yves Saint Laurent shared with friend, former lover, and lifelong business partner Pierre Bergé.

Notoriously shy, the designer lived in luxury with Bergé, and Ivan Terestchenko's photographs capture their exquisite surroundings in full.

Nineteenth-century French décor, important paintings by Picasso, Matisse, and other modern and Romantic artists, and masterpieces of furniture, sculpture, and silver ranging from the Renaissance to the Art Deco era--all are beautifully showcased in this book.

From the serene interiors of their apartment on the Rue Babylone, Paris, to the incandescent beauty of the Villa Majorelle in Marrakech, Bergé and Saint Laurent's sensibilities come alive. The homes presented here have all been sold, with their contents auctioned to benefit HIV/AIDS research, but The Private World of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé preserves their memory.

This coffee table book is a beautiful testament to a rare union of passion, elegance, and supreme connoisseurship.
