RARE artist scarf from the Edition Hermes, model La Serpentine de Pierre designed by the artist PIerre Charpin in 2018
For the scarf designs, Charpin took an abstract drawing from his oeuvre. “We started to interpret this handmade drawing with a computer, so we started to change the proportion and the color, and so it became really abstract. This shape is ribbon-like, but you can also imagine it spatially as well,” explained Charpin, who discovered the ideal horse for the piece in an Hermès book that featured several depictions of the animal that marks its equestrian roots. It was the look in the horse’s eye that drew Charpin to it. He placed the horse illustration in the ribbon, forming it in space. “The abstract aspect of the first drawing changed completely with the horses, because you can read the ribbon like a space, not like an abstract drawing,” said Charpin, who named the design La Serpentine de Pierre Charpin.
