Item Number: 105613 Title: Mito e Bellezza : Lucca / Roma / Parigi Author: Martinelli, Roberta ; Velia Gini Bartoli Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788837074487 Description: Milano: Electa, 2010. 28cm., pbk., 336pp. illus., most in color. Summary: Objects which once belonged to Napoleon, model ships, sketches, watercolours, uniforms, a fontaine à coco, a paper plate, toy soldiers, objects from the Hermès private collection and leading Parisian museums, together with a large number of carré from the prestigious Maison, are all part of this unusual exhibition. Few people are aware of the link that unites these apparently disparate objects to Émile-Maurice Hermès and the legend of the emperor: a link that lasted for over fifty years and characterised an important part of the production of these world famous scarves. Two people with an immense flair for communication and style, intensely aware of beauty and refinement, but equally committed to comfort and practicality, especially when it came to travel.
