The Émile Hermès Collection, Paris

The current exhibition at the Pointe-à-Callière Museum of Archaeology (PAC Museum) Of Horses and Men – The Émile Hermès Collection is accompanied by a catalogue, similarly entitle Of Horses and Men – The Émile Hermès Collection, Paris. The book was produced thanks to the generous authorization of the Hermès family, including Pierre-Alexis Dumas and Philippe Dumas, the latter of whom also provided original drawings for the publication.

This richly illustrated 128-page book features photographs of many items at the exhibition as well as documents from the Hermès Archives. It also contains previously unpublished texts, including a conversation between Philippe Dumas and Menehould du Chatelle, director of cultural heritage at Hermès International, articles by curators Jean-Paul Desroches and Nicolas Chaudun, and by Stéphane Laverrière, assistant curator at the cultural heritage department of Hermès International. The publication is available at the museum's gift shop in English and French.

The exhibition Of Horses and Men, featuring items from The Émile Hermès Collection, Paris, was produced by Pointe-à-Callière in collaboration with Hermès International. You can read more about the exhibition here.
