Description:

Art Nouveau ornamental design showing a lush, central flower arrangement set beneath a trellis archway. The sides feature additional flowering plants in decorative compositions representing columns. The upper part of the arch is flanked by two vases holding tulips while in the middle hangs a festoon adorned with the visage of a nymph or forest deity.

The caption reads in the original German: Safran, Tulpe, Nacisse.
