Little Book of Schiaparelli chronicles the work of one of history's most influential and eccentric couturiers. Endowed with a strikingly imaginative and experimental approach to fashion, Elsa Schiaparelli cultivated a combination of the witty and the surreal, the cutting edge and the elegant, from her garments and jewellery to her collaborations with Salvador Dal , Jean Cocteau and Alberto Giacometti. Exquisitely illustrated and expertly written, the book follows a biographical chronology detailing her life, career and primary creative themes of her work. Images of Schiaparelli's finished designs, along with close-up details and illustrations of her personal sketches, showcase the brilliance of her innovative oeuvre, and the legacy that lives on in the House of Schiaparelli to this day.

Little Book of Yves Saint Laurent is the pocket-sized and exquisitely illustrated story of 60 years of innovative fashion design. An enigmatic, daring and astonishingly creative designer, Yves Saint Laurent is credited with the elevation of haute couture to fine art, turning the fashion show into a spectacle of breathtaking proportions, and revolutionizing the gendered norms of womenswear.

Going on to found his own fashion house in 1961, Saint Laurent created his famous 'le smoking' trouser suit, brought the leather jacket to the mainstream and astounded the fashion world with his blend of elegance and artistic drama. Little Book of Yves Saint Laurent is a stylish gift for any lover of fashion.

Painted for the refectory of the convent of Santa Maria dei Servi in 1570-3, The Feast in the House of Simon was presented to Louis XIV by the Most Serene Republic of Venice in 1664, as a token of friendship between the two states. But it was not until 1730, during the reign of Louis XV, that this great masterpiece was to find a setting worthy of it in the Salon d'Hercule at Versailles, for which Francois Le Moyne painted a ceiling decoration a l'italienne, unique in France, using a light, luminous and sensual palette in an explicit tribute to Venetian painting.Despite a major restoration in 1948 and two later superficial cleanings, the painting was obscured, notably by thick varnishes, and required a radical intervention. This process, started in 1994 and finished this year, was carried out by the Service de restauration des musees de France with the scientific assistance of the Laboratoire de recherche. Seventeen experts have contributed essays documenting the "resurrection" of this masterpiece by Veronese.

Scavullo: Photographs, 50 years is the definitive collection of his work, and showcases the enormity and variety of his passion for taking pictures. Here, in this superb book of 100 full-color pictures and 125 in duotone, are portraits of the world's most beautiful women - Sophia Loren, Catherine Deneuve, Isabella Rossellini, Elizabeth Taylor - and those whose careers and stature has become legendary. Among them: Mikhail Baryshnikov, Shirley MacLaine, Mick Jagger, Sting, Raul Julia, Barbra Streisand, Julie Andrews, Diana Ross, Andy Warhol, Margaux Hemingway, Edward Albee, Christopher Reeve, Susan Sarandon, Candice Bergen, Diana Vreeland, Truman Capote. There are special sections on Brooke Shields, whom Scavullo first photographed when she was only seven months old for an Ivory soap ad, Lauren Hutton, Rene Russo, Madonna, and Janis Joplin, the latter in a group of images never before published. And of course there are the models - from Veruschka to Iman to Claudia Schiffer - who are made forever more beautiful by Scavullo. With an introduction by Enid Nemy, a feature writer for The New York Times, and personal commentaries throughout by the photographer as well as an illustrated chronology, this exceptional book forms the photographer's most complete, intimate portrait of his life and work.

L'originale metodologia utilizzata nello studio delle arti decorative e la novit dei materiali impiegati, fanno di questo volume un fondamentale punto d'arrivo nella conoscenza di uno dei pi importanti periodi della storia del mobile italiano. Questa pubblicazione, la prima di una serie dedicata agli stili dei mobili, intende illustrare quella particolare e del tutto originale declinazione che lo stile Impero ebbe in Italia nel periodo del governo francese della restaurazione, fin verso il 1840 quando cio esso venne progressivamente messo in ombra dalle pi accattivanti mode ispirate dai revival storicisti. Il volume, dopo una approfondita introduzione, impostato per schede corredate di numerosi confronti illustrativi, riguardanti la produzione delle arti decorative nelle numerose aree geografiche in cui allora la penisola italiana era divisa: i regni di Napoli e Sicilia, Roma, il granducato di Toscana, il ducato di Lucca, il regno Lombardo Veneto, le legazioni Pontificie e i ducati di Parma e Modena, il regno di Sardegna. Il risultato un utilissimo strumento di lavoro per gli studiosi e di approfondita conoscenza per gli amatori, anche grazie al ricco apparato illustrativo. ********************************The original methodology used in the study of the decorative arts and the novelty of the materials used make this volume a fundamental point of arrival in the knowledge of one of the most important periods in the history of Italian furniture. This publication, the first in a series devoted to furniture styles, aims to illustrate that particular and wholly original declination that the Empire style had in Italy during the period of the French government of the Restoration, until around 1840 when, that is, it was gradually overshadowed by the more appealing fashions inspired by historicist revivals. The volume, after a thorough introduction, is set out by tabs accompanied by numerous illustrative comparisons, concerning the production of the decorative arts in the many geographical areas into which the Italian peninsula was then divided: the kingdoms of Naples and Sicily, Rome, the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, the Duchy of Lucca, the Lombardo Veneto kingdom, the Papal legations and the Duchies of Parma and Modena, and the Kingdom of Sardinia. The result is a very useful working tool for scholars and in-depth knowledge for amateurs, also thanks to the rich illustrative apparatus.
