Collector Case Yvonne et le parasol bleu - Thierry des Ouches
“Yvonne et le Parasol bleu” is a poignant celebration of art, memory and imagination. This magnificent project tells the story of two emblematic figures from the childhood of author Thierry des Ouches: his grandmother Yvonne, one of the first women to graduate from the Beaux-Arts in Paris, and an old blue parasol, the silent witness to his childhood spent on an Atlantic beach.
Decades later, he brings these memories back to life through photography, documenting a series of solitary expeditions across France with a portrait of Yvonne painted by Émilie. The book, which contains previously unpublished photos taken between 2006 and 2022, is a tribute to absence, suspended time and the memories that reside deep in our hearts. “Yvonne et le Parasol bleu” is more than just a book, it's an immersive experience that invites you to revisit your own Yvonne et parasol bleu.
An intimate journey not to be missed.
