It's impossible not to think of her delightful British accent, her radiant presence, and the legendary couple she formed with Serge Gainsbourg. Her unforgettable moment climbing the stairs at the Cannes Film Festival with a wicker basket in hand, her effortlessly chic and slender appearance, and her profound influence on the fashion industry, which led to the creation of one of the world's most popular bags by inspiring the House of Hermès. When we hear the name Jane Birkin, a multitude of images of this young woman instantly fill our minds, along with countless anecdotes surrounding her career, her name, and her endearing personality. An interview with her, whether seen or read, has always been a great source of inspiration. Beyond being a mere figure of the elite, Jane Birkin was, above all, a marvelously human woman whose aura continued to grow and be admired across the globe throughout generations.

Today, on Sunday, July 16, 2023, we bid farewell to this British artist and icon, deeply rooted in France, who passed away at the age of 76.
