This is a reproduction of a chromatic study plate taken from the work Samarkande. The motif features yellow butterflies with geometric wings moving among dark foliage. The whole stands out against a deep midnight blue background, creating a luminous contrast that emphasizes the precision of the lines. This naturalist composition is structured by a repetitive rhythm characteristic of textile motifs from the Art Deco period.

Published around 1920, this work by Émile-Allain Séguy reflects the artist's interest in entomology and its application to industrial arts. Stencil work, characteristic of his collections, allows a superposition of saturated hues. The influence of Asian arts shines through in the way of stylizing insects and flora, combining scientific rigor with a decorative fantasy specific to early 20th-century aesthetics.

This reproduction offers an immersion into the ornamental universe of the 1920s. Its documentary and aesthetic value makes it an ideal piece for fans of art history and graphic design. Whether observed for its technical finesse or used as a decorative element, this plate brings a historical and elegant dimension to any space of contemplation.
