Étoffes imprimées et papiers peints;

Moussinac, Léon, 1890-1964 · 1924 · Paris, A. Lévy · 16 pictures

Étoffes imprimées et papiers peints is a 1924 Paris survey of printed textiles and wallpapers by Léon Moussinac, published by A. Lévy for designers and decorative-arts readers. Its plates show repeating patterns printed in one or two colours, ranging from stylised floral and bird motifs to bold blue woodcut-like blocks and brown animal scatters. A designer can take from them the scale of repeat, the balance of motif against ground, and how limited palettes carry decorative pattern.
