Description Description

The fascination of jewellery lies not only in its ability to please the eye, but also in its power to express the whole range of human emotions and ambitions: love, friendship, religious devotion, superstition, dynastic pride. Jewels of the Renaissance are one of the most seductive manifestations of an era that saw the broadening of established horizons, from the Old World to the New.

More information

Dr. Yvonne Hackenbroch’s seminal and comprehensive work, Renaissance Jewellery (Jewels of the Renaissance), originally published in 1979, cemented her reputation as the world’s foremost expert in the field. Hackenbroch brings to the subject not only her specialist knowledge and historical discipline, but also a storyteller’s passion for the beauty and power of jewellery. With kind permission from Dr. Hackenbroch’s estate, Assouline has abridged Dr. Hackenbroch’s original text to produce this spectacular volume, brimming with lavish imagery that expresses the boundless creativity and boundless spirit of the Renaissance Age.

During and after the war she worked part-time at the British Museum, and was part of the team that catalogued the Sutton Hoo treasure. In 1949, she was invited by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to work as a curator specialising in Renaissance art.

Gonzague Saint Bris is a French writer, historian, journalist and radio and television host who resides in his family castle, Clos Lucé, in Amboise, where Leonardo da Vinci lived and died.

About the brand

Assouline, where culture meets luxury It all began in 1993, when Martine and Prosper Assouline found themselves at the La Colombe d'Or hotel in France, one of their most beloved places in the world. As they experienced its beauty together, their curiosity about life and love of books inspired them to make their own tome about the hotel. Prosper took the photos, Martine wrote the text, and La Colombe D'Or became their first book, published in 1994. Today, every Assouline book continues to be created with the same union of talent and passion: Martine's editorial direction and Prosper's creative vision.
