Hermes Sans Soucy Silk Scarf by Loic Dubigeon - A Hermes silk twill scarf in the Sans Soucy pattern, designed by artist Loic Dubigeon and first issued in 1993. The historical design commemorates the Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam and the court of Frederick the Great. The composition features a central equestrian portrait of King Frederick II within an ornate architectural cartouche, surrounded by radiating sunburst lines. The corners and sides depict various facades of the palace architecture, eighteenth-century figures, and equestrian vignettes. Large celestial sun motifs are positioned in the upper corners. The cream-colored ground is framed by a solid black border with golden rococo flourishes. Printed markings include the title SANS SOUCY at the top, HERMES PARIS at the bottom center, a copyright symbol, and the artist signature Loic Dubigeon. The names Voltaire and Frederic appear flanking the central figure, and a corner vignette is inscribed JEAN HUBER PINXIT. A white fabric care tag is attached to the hem, stating FABRIQUE EN FRANCE 100% SOIE, MADE IN FRANCE 100% SILK, and DRY CLEAN ONLY. The scarf is finished with signature hand-rolled and stitched edges. 90 cm x 90 cm (approximately 35.5 inches x 35.5 inches).
