Leica M11 “Leitz Wetzlar” Monochrom Marble Edition is a masterpiece at the intersection of precision engineering, contemporary art, and timeless design.
The Leica M11 “Leitz Wetzlar” Monochrom Marble Edition consist of a partnership with renowned artist Casper Braat and Leica. Leica presents a creation that elevates the Monochrom concept into a work of art in its own right. Braat, celebrated for sculpting everyday objects from Carrara marble, brings his monochrome vision to life in perfect harmony with the Leica M11 Monochrom’s black-and-white identity.
The Edition:
Each set embodies the fusion of craftsmanship and artistry, comprising:
- Leica M11 Monochrom camera, engraved with the exclusive “Leitz Wetzlar” insignia
- Leica Noctilux-M 1:1.2/50MM ASPH. lens
- Marble sculpture of the Leica M11 Monochrom and lens in white Carrara marble
- Black Marquina marble pedestal for the sculpture
- White Carrara marble pedestal for the camera set
- 3 pieces of bespoke Leica flight cases to house the complete ensemble
Every detail is executed with uncompromising precision: each marble sculpture carries the same limited-edition number as its corresponding camera and lens, creating an unbreakable one-to-one connection. From the engraved serials to the markings on the lens, fidelity is absolute.
A Monumental Legacy : To crown this project, Casper Braat has created a singular 8,000 kg marble Leica M11 Monochrom sculpture, now welcoming visitors at the entrance of the Ernst Leitz Museum in Wetzlar, Germany. This monumental piece serves as a lasting tribute to the art of Leica and the vision of this collaboration.
