Hermès - " Les Voitures Nouvelles" by Jacques Eudel 1961 - Scarf

Vintage Hermès Square Scarf Model “Les Voitures Nouvelles” signed by Jacques Eudes.

First edition of 1961.

Cars and horses were long-time good companions; then, freed from their heavy harness, the horses vanished. As for the cars, they reveal to us, in this delicately composed, finely chiselled line, their antique charm and the remarkable artisanal craftsmanship for which France was one of the most prestigious centers. In colored crests or at the center of the square, uncovered carriages, elegant coupés, berlines or high-set phaétons bear witness to the refinement of an entire era.
