“We are thrilled that we were given this unique opportunity,” said Ferruccio Ferragamo, president of Ferragamo Group. “It’s the first time the museum allows the use of the peristyle Denon for a fashion show, and we are proud to revive the Italian style and our history in such a spectacular and special place as the Louvre. We organized very carefully to every detail, so the final result of the event to express a unique life experience and be perfect. ”

The famous “Made in Italy” luxury brand-one of the most famous and important in the world, is the exclusive sponsor of the current exhibition at the Louvre, “Saint Anne, Leonardo Da Vinci’s Ultimate Masterpiece”, which is a tribute to the recent restoration panel “The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne”-the famous oil painting of the Italian genius.

The exhibition, a collaboration between Salvatore Ferragamo and the Louvre-unites the culture and the arts to fashion and will remain open to the public until June 25, 2012. Having it already visited by more than 200,000 people, makes it one of the most important event organized by the museum in recent years.

“For the first time since the death of Leonardo Da Vinci, the exhibition brings together all the files that are scattered around the world, offering a deeper understanding of the fascinating genius behind the restored work of art,” adds Henri Loyrette, Director of the Louvre. “I would like to thank our sponsor, Salvatore Ferragamo, for this report, since without the support we could not recreate the atelier of the largest Italian Renaissance artist for these three months.”
