Dalla metà del XIX secolo ad oggi, Cartier ha saputo riscrivere il repertorio estetico e simbolico dell’antica Grecia e di Roma, trasformando motivi millenari in gioielli dal carattere unico e moderno. Cartier e il mito è un viaggio affascinante alla scoperta dell’universo estetico e formale della Maison Cartier, ed esplora il modo in cui l’antichità classica ha mutevolmente ispirato le sue creazioni più iconiche. Non si tratta solo di un’esplorazione di stili e forme: il volume ricostruisce atmosfere intellettuali e culturali, evocando l’evoluzione dell’immaginario legato alla Grecia e a Roma nel corso dell’Ottocento e del Novecento, con un focus particolare sul legame profondo tra Cartier e l’Italia, e soprattutto con Roma. Questo volume racconta come Cartier abbia saputo fondere tradizione e modernità, reinterpretando motivi antichi in chiave contemporanea. Dai raffinati pastiche dei grandi orafi e collezionisti del XIX secolo – come i Castellani a Roma – passando per il raffinato design dei gioielli in platino di inizio Novecento, alle creazioni audaci e surrealiste del dopoguerra, fino alla contemporaneità, con monili che interpretano la bellezza armonica delle proporzioni auree, Cartier e il mito mostra l’evoluzione del repertorio classico nella gioielleria. Particolare attenzione è dedicata agli scambi di stile tra Roma e Parigi, che, grazie alla visione innovativa di Cartier, hanno dato vita a gioielli dal fascino intramontabile e dall’eleganza senza tempo.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. An unprecedented dialogue between Cartier creations and the myths and artwork of antiquityThis sumptuous volume traces the influence of Greco-Roman culture on Cartier jewelry designs from the late 19th and 20th centuries. Louis Cartier embraced the archaeological revival movement initiated by the great collectors and goldsmiths of the 19th century, helping to facilitate a fertile stylistic exchange between Rome and Paris: integrating old and new. Take, for example, Cartier's "Trinity" ring, inspired in equal measure by the avant-garde poet Jean Cocteau and antiquity.Cartier & Myths delves into this fascinating history of aesthetic reappropriation, casting Cartier as its leading protagonist. In parallel, the volume unspools a more general study of jewelry's role in ancient mythology. Supplementing these two core sections are examinations of Roman sculptures in colored marble in the Capitoline collections as well as depictions of classical beauty in cinema. Vivid plate sections interspersed throughout pair Cartier designs with artifacts from antiquity. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
