Séguy, E. A.
Les Fleurs et Leurs Applications Décoratives. Plate 16.
Paris, Librairie des Arts décoratifs A. Calavas, 1902. Folio (49.8 x 47.0 cm), framed (77.7 x 58.7 cm). Pochoir print finished by hand. In passepartout and wooden frame.
A fine Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) plate, showing "chrysanthèmes", or chrysantemums, drawn and engraved by the French Art Deco painter and entomologist Émile Allain Séguy (1877-1951) (not to be confused with the French dipterologist Eugène Séguy). The complete work consists of two types of plates: illustrations of plants and flowers, and illustrations of their application in decorative art. This work is very rare and even single plates are rarely seen. Some light, even age-toning, otherwise very good. Schneider-Henn, Ornament und Dekoration, 273 and p. 48.
