Alphonse Maria Mucha is one of my favorite illustration artists, he was
born in the town of Ivančice, Moravia (the present Czech Republic). He was a Czech painter and decorative artist, known best for his
distinct style.
Today I post his French vintage perfume ad made circa 1900. The advertisement is for
"Bleuze-Hadancourt Parfumeur," in Paris.
Mucha produced a flurry of paintings, posters, advertisements, and book
illustrations, as well as designs for jewelry, carpets, wallpaper, and theatre
sets in what was termed initially “The Mucha Style” but became known as Art
Nouveau (French for “new art”).
I used one of his beautiful illustrations to decorate a round jewelry box
that I posted some weeks ago. You can see the
project here.
Have a great weekend,
Erika
