Cartier celebrated its longstanding relationship with the Beijing Palace Museum with Beyond Boundaries, an exhibition anchoring 30 years of friendship between two distinguished establishments.
The gods were smiling on Cartier and Beijing Palace Museum on the day of the preview of Beyond Boundaries. A joint collaboration between the two distinguished establishments, the showcase is a celebration of its longstanding relationship while showcasing more than 800 precious exhibits from both the museum’s and Cartier’s archives as well as that of private collectors.
Indeed, the sun was out and the skies a bright cerulean blue. The Forbidden City, the ancient fabled palatial home for at least 24 Ming and Qing emperors (and the Dowager Empress), is a remarkable sight against this sunny backdrop. The largest palace in the world, replete with 90 separate palaces and courtyards, once fueled the world’s imagination because few were able to tread its hallowed grounds—this was once the home to the sons of Heaven and not all were privy to its goings-on behind its walls. The grandeur of the Forbidden City remains intact to this day and its Meridian Gates provides the perfect venue for Beyond Boundaries.
