Studio d'Arts Décoratifs, 3e Série, Pl. 3, Quatre Compositions avec Fleurs

Third plate of the third series of pochoir pattern books, titled "Studio d'arts décoratifs", with Art Deco textile designs created by Nicolas Sorokine and published in Paris by Armand Guérinet, probably in the second half of the 1920s or the early 1930s. The series consists of a title page with index and 12 plates with designs numbered 1-12, each with numerous designs, bound with dark blue linen boards. The designs contain a variety of geometric motifs, birds and flowers, all typical of the Art Deco style, which was characterized by its eclecticism, drawing from a variety of sources that sought to combine old European design traditions with the modern style diffused by avant-garde art, while also reflecting the romantic fascination with early Egyptian and Meso-American "exotic" cultures promoted by archaeological discoveries of the times.

This plate consists of four designs with stylized floral motifs. The first design is made up of large stylized roses with petals executed in shades of orange, red, and pink, and stylized leaves executed with aquamarine, turquoise and red, over a cream ground. The second design is made up of large stylized roses colored with pink, purple and brownish-orange over a checked pattern executed with red and dark blue over a white ground. The third design is made up of stylized leaves colored with shades of green and bundles of small stylized flowers colored with pink and purple over an off-white ground. The final design is made up of bundles of stylized roses and flower buds colored with hot pink and red and stylized leaves colored with aquamarine and blue, and bundles of small blue stylized flowers and aquamarine leaves over a background with diagonal lines and strips of triangles colored with aquamarine, purple and blue over a cream ground; the upper part of the design has a dark gray ground, possibly to show two alternatives for the design.
