Chevaux De La Collection

Hermes.com > The Story Behind

When you step into the Emile Hermès collection, you enter a world where the horse is omnipresent; found on objects ranging from the most precious, essential and lightest to the most delightfully playful, surprising and cheerful. With his “horses from the collection”, Alexandre Benjamin Navet evokes the spirit of this fantasy with his rapid, freehand lines in oil pastels. In this joyful medley we can see the Hermès family's historic rocking horse, numerous representations of horses at a walk or gallop, as well as vases and glasses decorated with all sorts of equestrian scenes. A collector's delight!
