Eglantier 3 1896

"Eglantier 3" (1896) is a design by Maurice Pillard Verneuil, a prominent French Art Nouveau artist. This piece features three variations of a floral motif, showcasing his characteristic use of stylized organic forms and intricate details. The designs are arranged in a vertical composition, with the top two panels featuring a repeating pattern of stylized roses and foliage, and the bottom panel showcasing a more intricate border design with a repeating pattern of flowers and leaves. Verneuil's work often explored the beauty of natural forms, and this piece exemplifies the decorative and aesthetic qualities of the Art Nouveau style.
