Gifted with a remarkable talent for drawing and color composition, she creates these delicate, circus-like scenes that capture the essence and magic of circus artists, transporting spectators into a fairy-tale world.

A NOTE OF HISTORY

The circus, a fascinating performance combining acrobatics, animal training and comedy, has ancient origins in cultures throughout the world. Its roots can be traced back to Egyptian and Roman civilizations, which practiced entertainment that showcased human agility, strength and ingenuity. 

However, the modern circus as we know it today emerged in the 18th century. In England, Philip Astley, a former horseman, opened a circular amphitheater in London in 1768, thus marking the beginning of the modern circus. He introduced equestrian acts, jugglers, acrobats and clowns, creating a popular form of entertainment.

In 1974, Prince Rainier III of Monaco, a great circus enthusiast, undertook the creation of a festival to support traditional circus and circus families: thus was born the very first Festival International du Cirque de Monte-Carlo.

The festival features a meticulous selection of the most exceptional circus acts from all over the world, and crowns the winners of the "Gold Clowns" (Clowns d’or), "Silver Clowns (Clowns d'argent)" and "Bronze Clowns” (Clowns de bronze) at a prestigious gala evening.

The love of the circus is passed on from generation to generation: in 2005, Princess Stéphanie, daughter of Rainier III, in turn became President of this prestigious festival, and in 2012, thereby perpetuating the family heritage, she and her eldest daughter, Pauline Ducruet, created the New Generation Festival, an international competition showcasing emerging circus talents, providing a stage for young artists to demonstrate their virtuosity and creativity.

Since its creation by Prince Rainier III in 1974, the Festival International du Cirque de Monte-Carlo has established itself as one of the most prestigious and renowned events in the circus arts, bringing together the greatest talents in this discipline.

The year 2024 will mark the 50th anniversary of the Festival International du Cirque de Monte-Carlo, bringing to a close the celebrations of Prince Rainier III's centenary. An enduring legacy that continues to dazzle audiences the world over.

The silk

The silk for this large scarf has been carefully selected. This precious, shiny filament, obtained by unwinding a silkworm’s cocoon, naturally requires very high-quality production conditions. Highly sensitive to the quality of its environment, the silkworm cannot tolerate pollution and feeds only on fresh leaves. Its cultivation demands exceptional expertise: our artisans have chosen the finest sericulture farms.

Preserve the beauty of your large silk scarf:

• Store it flat and untied.
• Avoid direct contact with perfume.
• Entrust cleaning to a specialized professional.
