"This series of decorative panels sold for 12 francs in the paper version, and on satin, for 40 francs." Lendl/Paris, p. 93). A recent exhibition catalogue rightly calls this a "masterful work': The beauty of this pair of panels lies in the contrast between the geometric mosaic behind the head of Quill and the floral ornamental circle inspired by nature behind the head of Primrose" (Mucha/Art Nouveau, p. 198).
