Beautiful Butterflies

SciArt by Emile-Allain Séguy for his Papillons (1925).

Séguy was inspired by nature to design decorative patterns meant for textiles and wallpapers.

Séguy's Papillons (1925) is part of the Public Domain, which means that these illustrations may be reused for any purpose. As an example, I used the lower pattern of this illustration to create my website's header.
