Hermès PADDOCK Orange
Hermès: Beautiful and rare silk collection square, titled "Paddock" Signed Jean-Louis Clerc in 1955. Reissued in 2004 and 2015, which attests to its success. Jean-Louis Clerc was born in Neufchatel, Switzerland, in 1908. His studies, architecture and fine arts, led him to Zurich, Geneva and finally Stockholm. His style is recognizable among all: the lightness of his line and his way of disseminating the color earns him prestigious collaborations. A horse lover, passionate about the world of racing, he publishes some books including Le Prestige du Cheval. His meeting with Robert Dumas, in 1950, will give birth to a dozen squares. Among them Paddock, living evocation of this meeting place of horses and their owners, jockeys, elegant and punters, before each race. A forest of top hats, some capelines, silk girdles ... The picture is so vivid that one would think to hear the hubbub of conversations. It is presented here on an elegant blue background. Versatile and mixed, it can be the subject of a superb gift.
