About the Item
Title: Japanese Floral and Butterfly Textile Pattern: Antique Lithograph, 1880s
Description:
This vibrant lithograph from the 1880s features a striking Japanese textile pattern that masterfully combines the natural beauty of peonies and butterflies with a bold geometric structure. Published by Sampson Low & Co. and printed in Paris by the esteemed Imp. Lemercier & Cie, this piece was directed by G. A. Audsley, whose dedication to Japanese art and design shines through in this stunning composition.
The pattern is composed of lush peony blooms in shades of white, yellow, red, and soft purple, intricately surrounded by trailing foliage and playful butterflies. The flowers and butterflies are skillfully arranged against a backdrop of alternating red and black diagonal stripes, which imbue the design with a sense of rhythmic movement and energy. The addition of coiling ribbons and delicate leafy accents further enhances the composition, bringing an air of lightness and intricacy typical of Meiji-era Japanese design.
This lithograph is part of a celebrated portfolio that captured the refined elegance and sophisticated patterns of Japanese textiles, introducing them to a Western audience during the height of the Japonisme movement. The dynamic contrast between the vivid colors and the bold black accents creates a mesmerizing effect, making this piece an ideal choice for collectors of Japanese art, antique textiles, or those who seek a dramatic statement piece that bridges Eastern and Western artistic traditions.
