Vacheron Constantin M̩tiers d'Art Savoirs Enlumin̩s Caper : Ref Number 7000S/000G-B002

The M̩tiers d‰۪Art Savoirs Enlumin̩s collection draws aesthetic inspiration from the Aberdeen Bestiary, an ancient Celtic manuscript recovered from the Middle Ages that is internationally recognised for the quality of its miniaturized illuminations. The art of miniaturisation, designed to emphatically celebrate a sizeable body of handwritten literature, is a complex technique requiring extensive collaboration between scribes, painters and gilders in the creation of veritable works of art. Its natural affinities with the world of watchmaking are particularly apparent in the new M̩tiers d‰۪Art Savoirs Enlumin̩s collection. Over and above the exceptional beauty of the Aberdeen Bestiary, Vacheron Constantin pays tribute to the transmission of knowledge that these manuscripts symbolize. An adventure that leads us to encounter a veritable legend, all too rarely revealed to the public, and yet almost universally shared by Eastern and Western cultures.The ref. 7000S/000G-B002 features a scene with a caper -a midnight blue goat- on the left half of its dial. Just as the Vultures and Altion models, it is a limited edition of 20 pieces.
