1920
Step into the world of 1920s design with this vibrant plate of butterflies by Emile-Allain Séguy. As a trained entomologist, Séguy knew his insects, but here he transforms them into graphic masterpieces, overlapping five distinct species in a dance of muted greens, rich browns, and striking blacks. This piece comes from his famous 'Papillons' portfolio, intended to inspire fashion and textile designers with its bold, stylized forms. The flat, crisp colors are a hallmark of the era's high-end printing, likely created using the pochoir stencil technique to achieve that perfect, hand-finished look.
