Suggestions, Pl. 4

Fourth plate of album with 20 pochoir pattern plates with designs for textiles and carpets, titled "Suggestions pour étoffes et tapis: 60 motifs en couleur" (Suggestions for stuffs and carpets: 60 color motifs), created by E.A. Séguy and published in Paris by Massin & Cie in 1923. The plate contains four designs with semi-abstract motifs inspired from nature, executed with lively colors. The first design is made up of thin, interlacing branches with large, stylized flowers, colored with blue, the pistils of the flowers also containing purple fots, and small, semi-abstract, green leaves, on a white ground, between two vertical, black stripes. The second design is made up of vertical garlands, colored with dark blue and purple, containing strips of elongated, diagonal patches, colored with blue and silver, and flanked alternatingly by half rosettes with white, semi-abstract petals, outlined with purple, on a bluish-gray ground. The third design is made up of thin, interlacing branches with semi-abstract, scallop-edged leaves, colored with black and with silver highlights near the edges, on a greenish-blue ground with alternating strips of semi-abstract leaves, colored with green, and with abstract patches, executed with dark green and silver. The fourth design is made up of semi-abstract flowers with petals rendered with chevron patterns colored with red, purple, and white, flanked above by semi-abstract stamina, executed with purple, dark blue, and dark greenish-blue, and flanked below by large, semi-abstract leaves, colored with dark blue and dark greenish-blue, on a white ground with thin, dark greenish-blue vertical stripes, and silver spots.
