Those underwings could almost be the inspiration for some of the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, a designer from the Arts and Crafts movement and the main representative of Art Nouveau in the UK. ..
What better inspiration could there be than nature?

It's a Marbled White Melanargia galatea, not a Painted Lady, but I take your point that it is a very designerish sort of creature.
That just goes to show how brain dead I am today, Susan!! I think I should just pack up and go to bed now!!
I've now corrected my mistake - which I'd love to claim was deliberate, but was quite definitely not! Sorry folks...
That's remarkable and you're spot with regards to Mackintosh - exactly my thoughts!
Please do not mention CRM again... I have to go and change my shirt now...
all the drool, you know!!
You are spot on, though.
Great observation! CRM great man!

That butterfly certainly sports a Mackintosh wing!
