VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an image of a vintage magazine cover for "La Vie Parisienne" dated Saturday, July 17, 1920. The illustration features an art nouveau style with a central figure of an elegant woman sitting inside the petals of a giant rose. She appears to be nude and is holding what looks like a perfume bottle, gazing seductively over her shoulder. Behind her looms a large moth with distinctive patterns on its wings that resemble eyes. In the background, there's also a small figure of what seems to be a man in period attire reaching out towards the moth or perhaps the woman. The text above reads "LA VIE PARISIENNE, " and below it says "PAPILLON DU SOIR. . . ESPOIR!" which translates to "Evening Butterfly. . . Hope!" This phrase possibly alludes to themes of romance or allure that are typical for this publication known for its literary and artistic content focusing on Parisian lifestyle during that era.
