1890s Art Nouveau “Plate 16: Lanternflys” by E.A. Seguy, Antique Natural History Insect Entomology illustration art print on Douglas fir - wall hanging

Seguy’s art nouveau style used a pochoir technique, that involved stencilling and hand colouring. Creating images that were highly detailed, with richly saturated colours and intricate patterns, creating a sense of vibrancy and energy. His insect prints were a departure from the more traditional floral and geometric designs that were popular at the time.
