Printed fluid silk serge with a cream background and hand-topstitched edges. Motifs representing vessels and frigates with European flags, boats full of soldiers and strong symbols of navigation and its beliefs (rudder, bow representing Triton, mermaids, cannons, etc.). Label Hermès at the top right indicating Hermès Paris and signature of Ledoux at the bottom center. Note three to four tiny yellow halos (2 mm maximum) difficult to observe otherwise very good general condition of color and conservation.
