From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2017/18 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Panorama universel de la haute carrosserie et sellerie, Exposition universelle de Londres en 1851, par Guillon. This composition is inspired by a grandly named volume in the mile Hermes collection. In the mid 19th century. French and international carriage designs were particularly dynamic and inventive, combining aesthetic appeal and technical innovation. At the London World's Fair of 1851, for example, a Paris workshop presented a modular carriage, and a coupé whose protective rain-hood could be raised or lowered at the press of a button. Convertible carriages were in vogue in France at the time, as evidenced by the ancestors of the soft-top car seen here, surrounding a central motif inspired by a caned panel, an effect often used at the time to decorate the body of the carriage.
