Mariposas Lám.05
1920
Emile-Allain Séguy’s vibrant 1920s butterfly study is a masterclass in turning nature into pure design. Arranged in a swirling, almost kaleidoscopic circle, these five stylized insects boast bold blocks of magenta, teal, and sunshine yellow that leap off the page. Originally created as inspiration for textile and wallpaper designers, this plate from his famous Papillons portfolio perfectly captures the era's obsession with merging scientific illustration with modern, decorative flair. It’s less about strict biological accuracy and more about the rhythmic beauty of wings in flight.
