Nouveau!


The 1920's and 30's had it all. Great fashion, fantastic music, and truly groundbreaking artwork. Art Nouveau and Deco, in my opinion, are some of the most important and expressive eras in fine art. The works were obsessively clean, lines were prominent, and figures were exaggerated, accentuating delicacy and form. I'd really love to adopt those attributes, implementing them into my own, personal style. This piece is slightly reminiscent of those previous works.

  1. She reminds me of a graceful thoroughbred mare arching her back and stretching her long neck. Very feminine and elegant, I love it!
