Floréal, Pl. 13

Thirteenth 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 consists of undulating garlands made up of green roundels with small bundles of stylized flowers, colored with red and shades of orange, flanked by two long leaves, colored with green and black, framed by overlapping rings, colored with shades of purple and the outer one with aquamarine, on a checked background made up of alternating mint green and dark purple rectangles. The second design is made up of scrolling leaves, colored with dark purple, and bundles of flowers, colored with purple, orange, white, and green, on a purple ground. The third design is made up of a stylized tree, with a black trunk, brown and green leaves, and semi-abstract flowers colored with white, shades of purple, and outlined with black, standing on a green roundel, outlined with blue and yellow, on a purple ground with abstract motifs colored with white, yellow, green, and blue.
