Description
From the Renaissance to the end of the Belle Epoque, miniature portraits of famous personalities – political, military, literary, artistic – and of private individuals inspired jewelers to design precious settings to enhance their beauty and emphasize their significance. The jewels bring to life five centuries of extraordinary events and personalities, and illustrate a fascinating aspect of the history of jewelry.
