Art Nouveau Book

Another mini-coffee-table-book we use when we shoot our center tables & end tables, the Art Nouveau by Flame Tree. The book also doubles as an inspiration… the great designers of the past truly knew STYLE. I am no art guru but based from the read, the Art Nouveau style came about before the birth of the Art Deco style. And a proof of how semi-naive I am when it comes to the arts, I didn’t know that the print design for this umbrella jar is by one kickass artist from the Art Nouveau style.

Art Nouveau follows the meteoric rise and fall of one of the most glamorous and extravagant styles in art history, exploring works from some of the world`s best loved artists and designers. From architecture and furniture to jewellery and sculpture, this beautifully illustrated reference book captures the very best essence of this most lavish of styles. via
