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 BergÃ©. Notoriously shy, the designer lived in luxury with BergÃ©, and Ivan Terestchenko's photographs capture their exquisite surroundings in full. Nineteenth-century French dÃ©cor, 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 eraâ€”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, BergÃ© and Saint Laurent's sensibilities come alive. The homes presented here have all been sold, with their contents auctioned to benefit HIV/AIDS research, butThe Private World of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre BergÃ©preserves their memory.
