Art and History of this Hermès Scarf
Throughout history, humans have established their cities and civilizations near rivers and streams. But if there is one continent where water is more precious than gold, it is undoubtedly Africa. The river brings water to the lands of the countries it flows through. It irrigates the fields and allows people and animals to quench their thirst and feed on their catch. When the water is calm, canoes glide gently across its surface, and people can trade and communicate. The river's water carries life like blood flows in the veins. With *The Life of the River*, a work resolutely inspired by the motifs of traditional African mbata or kitenge fabrics , Aline Honoré simply shows us the River of Life. Diane
