FIRST EDITION. Folio (32 x 24.5 cm). Half-title and title-page on one bifolium, 40 fine full-colour pochoir plates, with tissue guards, all housed loose as issued in publisher's original cloth-backed portfolio, retaining the original black ties. Some light toning and spotting to portfolio, small split to cloth at foot of spine,…the plates in fine condition, some with just the lightest suggestion of toning to very outer margins, an excellent example overall. A very rare and well-preserved, complete copy of this enigmatic work by the French Art Deco painter, decorator and entomologist Émile Allain Séguy (1877-1951). This is his last work. The plates, on wove paper, contain illustrations based on minerals, finely coloured using pochoir. It is considered a quintessential example of Art Deco design, showcasing Séguy's transition from the organic curves of Art Nouveau to the bold, geometric abstraction of the 1930s. "Simply stated, pochoir is the French word for stencil. In the 1920's and 30's Art Deco era, the colour application process of the stencil was rejuvenated by the French, bringing color illustration processes for books and prints to new glorious heights. This interest in exploring the stencil process came in reaction to the proliferation of machine printing and the poor quality of color reproductions in publishing. With pochoir printing, the hand application of layers of pigment created dazzling effects that the camera or printing press could never replicate. Earlier stencil works, typically used for decorative surface ornament were quite primitive, with applied color areas outlined by the supporting cutout framework. New experimental techniques in pochoir refined the process using multiple layers of color applications for a single print. Pochoir printing was also easily combined with images made by lithography, woodcut, wood engraving, line drawings, or etchings, thus turning a decorative technique into fine art" (RISD library website). Some minor wear to binding, overall a very good copy. The colouring is absolutely spectacular. Hardy, A. R. (2015) Ornemaniste Art Deco. Bulletin S.A.B.F 202, pp. 30-32; Vallée, M.

A beautiful lithograph hand-coloured en pochoir depicting insects, for patterns, fabric or wallpaper designs. Plate 16. Mounted, overall size: 58cm x 44.5cm. Each print is produced entirely by hand using a unique printing process called pochoir, which was popular in France at the turn of the 20th century. A process that utilizes… the method of applying pigment to paper through the use of stencils. Paint was applied through the stencils by brushes. Superb lithograph by the master of the format. 'In comparison with their variety and brilliance, much Art Deco illustration seems pallid and constrained. And of course their large format makes them particularly attractive for exhibition purposes' (Ray, The Art Deco Book in France). E.A. Seguy (1889-1985), was active as an artist in Paris from 1900 to 1925. His mastery of decorative design and colour is evident in the series of 11 beautiful pochoir portfolios he created. Unusual in his capacity to span the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods, Seguy's portfolios remain exquisite examples of ornamentation and composition, featuring motifs based on the natural world, including flowers, foliage, crystals and animals.
