This plate consists of five designs with semi-abstract floral motifs. The first design is made up of purple clouds outlined with black intermittent lines filled with circles colored with green, red and yellow, some of them linked by black lines, over an abstract floral pattern colored with green, purple, yellow and red, over which stand out interlacing intermittent black-and-white lines and black hatches. The second design is made up of vertical undulating strips of small flowers colored with gray and outlined with white, separated by undulating stripes colored with gray and outlined with yellow and white, over a light purple ground. The third design is made up of semi-abstract daisies colored with white and gray or with aquamarine and green, and fragments of circles filled with flowers, lozenges, triangles and other geometric motifs, colored with aquamarine, green, light brown, purple and white, over a light brown ground. The fourth design is made up of semi-abstract spring symphonies executed with red, pink, orange, green and black over a violet ground. The last design consists of a semi-abstract pattern of interlacing branches colored with maroon and semi-abstract flowers colored with shades of purple, partially covered by abstract motifs colored with aquamarine, to create a water-reflection effect.
