Trios of irises and waves undulate in <em>Iris d'Eau</em>, artist, designer, and lacemaker Félix Aubert's ode to the flower, <em></em> produced in a plain-weave cotton, like this sample, and ina cotton velvet by the Alsatian firm Scheurer, Lauth et Cie.
<p>Félix Aubert was a major proponent of marrying the fine and decorative arts, and a founding member of Groupe des Cinq and Groupe des Six, forerunners of the <em>Art dans tout</em> movement whose tenets included truth to materials and form following function in the luxe arts: "artistic honesty" as the members defined it at their first public exhibition of 1896. The Groupe des Six chose <em>Iris d'Eau </em>to cover the walls of the Galerie des Artistes Modernes in 1898. At the 1900 Exposition Universelle, Aubert exhibited a collection of his printed textiles produced by Scheurer, Lauth & Cie., including a design similar to the present cotton.
