Art Nouveau

The Art Nouveau movement became an international phenomenon at the beginning of the twentieth century that ushered in the era of modernity in almost every aspect of cultural life. For decades critics have argued that Art Nouveau was an amalgam of artists and styles that served as a bridge between neoclassicism and modernism.

This volume explores key aspects of Art Nouveau-decorative arts, architecture, fashion, dance, advertising, and more-with an in-depth approach and stunning illustrations.
