Floréal, Pl. 15

Fourteenth 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 large, scrolling leaves, outlined with blue, colored with a yellow and a green stripe on the upper part of the leaf, and the rest of the body colored with black or brown, on a white ground. The second design is made up of semi-abstract rosettes, colored with green, blue, and shades of purple, on a background with alternating strips of rectangles, outlined with thin, purple, intermittent lines, and rendered with light green horizontal intermittent lines. The third design is made up of thin, vertical interlacing branches, colored with brown and outlined with white and black, with offsetting, scrolling branches, colored with brown, and with large, hanging flowers, colored with blue and purple, and outlined with black and white, on a green ground. The fourth design is made up of thin, undulating, yellow branches, with offsetting thorns, colored with green and outlined with white, and flanked alternatingly with thin scrolling branches holding three, elongated, hanging flowers, colored with orange and red, and large, stylized leaves, colored with black, on a dark blue ground.
