Art Nouveau : Posters, Illustration & Fine Art From The Glamorous Fin De Siecle

The rise of the Art Nouveau style across Continental Europe and the US in
all forms of art was remarkable and is explored in this beautifully
illustrated book. Discussing the movement first as a whole, then from the
angle of the graphic arts and finally as manifested in the fine arts, it
focuses on the style in two dimensions. From the work of well-known figures
such as Toulouse-Lautrec, Gaudi and Tiffany to beautiful posters and
illustrations advertising everything from coffee to costumes, and even
including an exploration of the links to Synthetism and Symbolism among
other movements, the book is a treat from start to finish.
