The campaign celebrates love through a mix of iconic excerpts and passages, such as “The madness of love is the greatest of heaven’s blessings” from Plato’s “Phaedrus” and Rumi’s “A thousand half-loves must be forsaken to take one whole heart home.” These are showcased in the campaign, which will be featured across quintessential New York City locations and Tiffany & Co. channels.
