Original Description
Paul Émile Berthon's Les Églantines (1898) epitomizes the refined elegance of Art Nouveau lithographic prints. Measuring approximately 37 x 23 cm, this delicate vertical composition depicts a graceful woman amidst swirling roses (églantines), her flowing gown merging seamlessly with cascading floral motifs—a hallmark of Berthon’s Japonisme-inflected style. The muted yet luminous palette of sage greens, blush pinks, and antique gold creates a dreamlike aura, while precise contours reveal Berthon’s training under Luc-Olivier Merson and influence from Eugène Grasset’s decorative synthesis. As a leading figure of L’Art Nouveau Bing, Berthon elevated commercial printmaking to high art; Les Églantines now resides in institutions like the Metropolitan Museum of Art, embodying fin-de-siècle craftsmanship’s rebirth amidst industrialization.
For interiors, Les Églantines shines in spaces craving poetic nostalgia. Its vertical format suits narrow walls—flanking a hallway mirror or above a boutique hotel’s escritoire—while the botanical motifs naturally harmonize with rattan furniture or Tiffany glass lamps. Replicate its celadon tones through linen upholstery or matte ceramic vases, avoiding stark whites that would jar with its velvety warmth. In a minimalist office, a framed original lithograph (opt for UV-protective museum glass) adds organic softness beside sleek steel desks; for larger rooms, pair it with Berthon’s Les Marguerites to create a curated “botanical salon” effect. Scale matters: A3-sized reproductions preserve detail without overwhelming intimate spaces, while gilt frames amplify its Belle Époque charm.
