Menchari's aesthetic vision and her sense of color and texture created magnificent installations that brought the best out of silk and leather. Born in Tunis and considering herself a citizen of the world, Menchari was inspired by her journeys to the Near and Far East, her encounters with extraordinary figures of the art world and her Beaux-Arts training. For Hermès she created Egyptian archaeological sites with sand and crumbling statues and iconic scenes of Paris with monuments crafted out of organza, among many other fantasies. Featuring a preface by Hermès CEO Axel Dumas, this extensively illustrated, sumptuous publication focuses on 137 Hermès storefronts created by Leïla Menchari between 1978 and 2013. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hermes\/Actes Sud","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45033019932823,"sku":"9782330084158","price":3102.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9782330084158.webp?v=1767098357","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/leila-menchari-the-queen-of-enchantment-9782330084158","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
