Design for a Painted Porcelain Plate, Les Lys (Lillies) from the Service de la Culture des Fleurs (Flower Cultivation Service)

Scene in front of a church, possibly on Assumption Day (August). A procession of parishioners file out of the church, right background, led by acolytes holding banners with images of the Virgin. In the right middleground, a group of three female figures receive lily branches (a Virgin symbol) from a man, center middleground, who is distributing the flowers from a planted terrace. A young boy, behind the man, smells a lily; another boy, left middleground, observes the scene from the top of a brick wall that is decorated with the French coat of arms.
