The star pieces from fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent's art collection - including works by Cézanne, Picasso, Mondrian and Matisse - have been unveiled in the Grand Palais, Paris, ahead of what auctioneers have dubbed the art 'sale of the century.'Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé amassed the collection together before the designer's death in June 2008. The works, which had adorned the pair's Paris flats, the Chateau Gabriel in Normandy and their home in Morocco, include antiquities, Old Master and 19th-century paintings and drawings, Art Deco pieces and European furniture and art. Now Pierre Bergé has decided to sell the entire collection. It's the end of an era and the sale has already excited enormous interest and speculation. This book shows, for the first time, the collection in situ in the pair's homes. Although some pieces have been photographed separately in the past, they have never been photographed together, making this beautifully produced book the ultimate record of one of the 20th century's great collections.… (meer)

Art Deco? Their living spaces are more along the lines of overindulged and overdone, if you ask me! I don't think that I've ever seen such a large collection of stuff - albeit stuff worth a lot of money - so it's no wonder that they needed multiple houses and apartments. I sure couldn't live in that cluttered space, so seeing this type of overwrought decoration gives me an exact idea of how I don't want my future house to look.

That being said, I did enjoy this glimpse into the minds of Saint Laurent and Bergé. It was less than 50 years ago that they were the epitome of style and taste, but it already seems 100 years gone by with how much the decorative attitude has changed. I'm sure that there are people out there immitating the style of Saint Laurent and Bergé, but I doubt that the availability of fine modern and classical art and statuary is as open as during the 1970s and 1980s.
