E.A. SEGUY POCHOIRS: 'FLOREAL DESSINS & COLORIS NOUVEAUX'

E.A. SEGUY WAS A RENOUND GRAPHIC ARTIST IN THE EARLY YEARS OF THE 20TH CENTURY. WITH A BOLD NEW STYLE USING CONTRASTING COLOURS AND JUXTIPOSING PATERN ON TOP OF PATTERN, SEGUY WAS ABLE TO DEVELOP A SIGNATURE WHICH EVEN TODAY IS READILY RECOGNISABLE. 

 

 

THE DESIGNS WERE CREATED BY USING THE POCHOIR PROCESS, EXACTLY THE SAME METHOD USED BY CHABOT, SEGUY'S CONTEMPORARY. HIS MOCKING OF NATURE AND THE DECONSTRUCTING OF IMAGERY WAS PLACING SEGUY ON THE SAME COURSE AS PICASSO AND HIS CUBIST STYLE OF ART. YET THE DESIGNS WERE ALSO QUITE ORIENTAL IN PATTERN REVEALING THE FAMILIAR ART DECO INFLUENCE.

 

 ALL ARE IN VIRTUALLY PERFECT CONDITION. SIZED AT APPROX. 14" X 21", THEY ARE EACH PRICED AT C$550.
