Floréal, Pl. 11

Eleventh plate of album with 20 pochoir pattern plates, titled "Floréal: Dessins & Coloris Nouveaux" (Floreal: New Designs and Colors), created by Emile-Allain Séguy and published in Paris by A. Calavas in 1925 or earlier. The plate contains four ornamental designs, possibly for textiles or wallpapers, with lively, semi-abstract motifs inspired from nature. The first design is made up of thin, interlacing branches of purple color, with clusters of leaves colored with dark green and outlined with green and orange. The second design is made up of a vertical strip with bundles of semi-abstract leaves, colored with light shades of brown, with a thin, offsetting branch flanked by a paisley leave made up of purple dots and small, green leaves, on a dark blue ground with semi-abstract, dark brown leaves. The third design is made up of an undulating garland of semi-abstract fruits, colored with brown and green, with seeds in the center, colored with brown, white, and orange, and with offsetting, black thorns on the outer edges, on a purple ground with white, vertical stripes with six thinner purple vertical lines. The fourth design is made up of a checked pattern composed of white vertical and horizontal stripes with thin, undulating, dark blue and purple lines, the intersections colored with a purple square decorated with smaller, white squares, outlined with dark blue, on a dark blue ground; the dark blue squares of the checked pattern contain bundles of large, semi-abstract flowers, colored with dark red, orange, and yellow, and leaves, colored with light green.
