Artists in the early 20th century drew heavily from nature, with colorful flowers being a favored decorative element during the Art Nouveau period and solidifying their presence by the 1920s. This trend was evident at the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris.

In this Aubusson tapestry, tulips are arranged directionally against a contrasting teal and violet background. The pattern and background blend together, creating a visual statement about depth within the two-dimensional framework of the tapestry.
