PROJETS CARRES HERMES SCARF BY HENRI D’ORIGNY

Part of the Autumn/Winter 2007 Collection, the Projets Carres by Henri d’Origny may look somewhat different from let’s say his earlier design, the classic L’Instruction du Roy from 1993.

L’Instruction du Roy Hermes scarf on a silk jacquard with riders was designed by Henri d’Origny in 1993 – SOLD

Why? Well, to my knowledge, this is the first design to be created digitally rather than by hand.

Various riding implements such as whips, stirrups and bits cast their shadows in such a way that the illusion of space is beautifully recreated in this spectacular carre. 

Of course the L’Intruction du Roy is in its own right spectacular and will always be a personal favorite.
