Medici Cheetah Ribbon in Musk & Maraschino

The Medici Cheetah was inspired by Italian Renaissance paintings and cultural events alongside beliefs and attitudes of the era; the dichotomy of idealism versus naturalism opening a portal to landscapes of fantasy, a ‘New World’. Hieronymus Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights contained anachronous plants, red fruits, and flowers, here shown in the form of daisies, cherries and pomegranates; the red and white elements symbolising the blood and flesh of Christ and illustrated in the fashion of Schreiber’s illuminated manuscripts. Tiny insects symbolise nature’s transience.
