“Della Cavalleria” stands among the most extraordinary treatises in the history of riding.
Written by Georg Engelhard von Löhneysen, it first appeared in Bavaria at the start of the 17th century.
Today, it forms part of the treasured Émile Hermès Collection.
The work is richly illustrated with baroque engravings, presenting German sleighs drawn by fantastical creatures and lavishly adorned horses.
Moreover, these images provide both a window into early riding traditions and a celebration of visual imagination.
For the Della Cavalleria Favolosa design, Virginie Jamin reinterprets these engravings with her own creative flair.
She pushes extravagance further by assembling horses’ bodies with chimerical monsters.
As a result, the blanket reflects a dreamlike mix of equestrian elegance and mythical fantasy.
Keeping with the theme of games, the designer injects a playful twist.
She places a racket in one horse’s hooves, gives another a yoyo, and even balances a diabolo in the scene.
Consequently, the associations become unexpected, humorous, and intriguing—worthy of a surrealist “exquisite corpse.”
This mix of historical reference and modern wit makes the Della Cavalleria Favolosa blanket both spectacular and thought-provoking.
It demonstrates how Hermès continues to honor tradition while delighting collectors with fresh invention.
