Samarkande plate: white and green flowers by E.A. Séguy

This reproduction presents an ornamental plate from the collection Samarkande by Émile-Allain Séguy. The composition is structured around white and green floral forms, punctuated by orange accents on an earthy brown background. The graphics stand out for symmetrical organization and clean outlines, creating a plant motif that is both dense and structured, characteristic of the decorative research of the interwar period.

Created between 1920 and 1926, this illustration is part of the production of ornament albums intended for creators of fabrics and wallpapers. Émile-Allain Séguy displays his mastery of color and form, transforming the natural subject into a decorative abstraction. The use of brown as a chromatic base reinforces the organic aspect of the plate, while highlighting the modernity of the white and green touches.

Intended for lovers of graphic arts, this reproduction of a naturalist plate constitutes a sober and sophisticated decorative element. It allows one to appreciate the transition between Art Nouveau and Art Deco through the eyes of a major illustrator. This piece is particularly suited for interiors favoring natural tones and historical motifs of high graphic quality.
