Inspired by a 17th-century engraving depicting a bird’s eye view of Paris, Octave Marsal reinvents the French capital’s streetscape. The original design was the work of Matthäus Merian the Elder, a Swiss-German copperplate engraver and publisher known for his numerous editions of maps. With some artistic license, Marsal maps the course of the Seine, the city walls and monuments of a dreamlike Paris, creating a Cite Cavaliere with the silhouette of a horse at its heart. The landmarks and the coat of arms of this imaginary city are clear to see, but a few secrets remain to be discovered… Can you spot the Faubourg store, the Colossus of Rhodes, a saddle, and a reference to the iconic “Brides de Gala”?
Scarf in silk twill with hand-rolled edges and hand-embroidered with sequins (100% silk).
Delicately printed on a black background and embroidered with black lacquered sequins, Octave Marsal’s La Nouvelle Cite Cavaliere design plays on chiaroscuro.
