From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2020/21 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: At hunting meets and equestrian competitions, horses wait in their grande tenue, or ceremonial dress, of blankets in wool broadcloth and sheets in monogrammed checked cotton. Hermès' archives include a unique collection of these emblems designed to identify teams by their owners' monograms, the oldest of which date from the era of Napoleon III. The stamped monogram of a viscount, with highly graphic lines, sits opposite that of a Romanian prince, while a lion emerging from a ducal crown faces those of Napoleon Ill and a maharajah. The centre displays the monogram of mile Hermès, a passionate collector. responsible for the house's collective memory.
