Academia Hippica

Hermes.com > The Story Behind

Are you interested in art history? Then come in, it's open day at the cheerful academy created by Jan Bajtlik. Open to the entire animal kingdom, his equestrian training is in great demand. Surfing on Hokusai's wave, a cave painting, a plant portrait by Arcimboldo or Leonardo da Vinci's Pegasus... All the equestrian electives are available. Sitting at his desk, the director, a chamois that bears a striking resemblance to the designer, is fine-tuning his project, while up above, the Hermès artificer watches over the students. What an inspiring and colorful university campus.
