Story about the Design: A sleeping jaguar curls beneath a sweeping fan of feathers, surrounded by tropical leaves, flowers and butterflies. Shirley contrasts the animal’s bold spotted coat with fine botanical drawing, creating a composition that rewards a closer look. Coral and pink feathers bring warmth to the blue and green foliage, while the dark areas give the scene depth and frame the jaguar’s peaceful expression.
Artist's Story: Alice Shirley is a British artist whose work centres on nature and storytelling. She draws by hand and has collaborated with Hermès since 2012, bringing her closely observed animals and plants to scarves and other objects. Her studies at Byam Shaw School of Art and the Royal Drawing School underpin a practice in which detailed drawing carries the narrative. Jaguar Quetzal gives that approach a particularly expressive animal subject.
Collector's Notes: Public collector discussions praise the intricate drawing and the sleeping jaguar’s gentle character. Butterflies and other small details invite repeated viewing, and some enthusiasts appreciate the composition as an image to display as well as wear. Collectors of the 90 cm silk format also describe choosing more than one colourway. These comments place the pleasure of Shirley’s imagery at the centre of the design’s collector appeal.
