Cartier Panthère, Assouline, The Legend Collection (book) by Vivienne Becker, Bérénice Geoffroy-Schneiter, André Leon Talley. Assouline Editions. Linen hardcover in a luxury slipcase. 300 pages. 150 illustrations. 2015. Book new in English.
A discreet figure in Cartier’s iconography for a century, the panther is the proud leader of the pack of precious animals that make up the famous Cartier menagerie. No other creature or jewel is as inseparably and emotionally linked to the exceptional women of the 20th century and the ideals of modern femininity. It has become Cartier’s most emblematic motif for a century.
A symbol of power, seduction, and triumph since Antiquity, the image of the panther continues to inspire fantasies and dreams.
With texts by art historian Bérénice Geoffroy-Schneiter, jewelry historian Vivienne Becker, jewelry expert Joanna Hardy, and fashion editor André Leon Talley, Cartier Panthère chronicles the panther in art history, the evolution of Cartier panther jewelry, the techniques involved in creating a Cartier panther piece, the influence of the panther in fashion, design, and popular culture, and includes a 100-year timeline of Cartier panther jewelry.
