Geometrically decorated with a green gouache line underlined by a black line, this original design is strikingly simple and effective. It embodies Jeanne Malivel's radically modern Seiz Breur aesthetic.
It was submitted to the admissions jury of the 1925 International Exhibition as part of the Seiz Breur's contribution to the design of the Breton pavilion.
