The Perfectionists, Vogue, September 1974
PHOTOGRAPHER: NORMAN PARKINSON
Norman Parkinson's September 1974 British Vogue image encapsulates a serene moment between Yves Saint Laurent and his muse Loulou de la Falaise, amidst Lalanne’s whimsical sheep sculptures, les “Moutons de Laine” who he collaborated with for many of his creations. This photograph taken in Saint Laurent's Rue de Babylone garden is a testament to Parkinson's ability to portray a candid tableau that reflects both the intimacy of their relationship and their collective artistic spirit.
