Thank you Mr Dumas for what you have made of la maison Hermes.

For the many of us who have met him IRL, he's a great man full of passion. The house of Hermes will never be the same again without Jean Louis & Reya.

A photographer will always be a photographer regardless of anything. Hermes continue to live on his legacy, full of stories.

And, my treasured letter from Jean-Louis Dumas in 2002. I shall treasure it all the more now.

May he RIP..
