Synopsis

Created during the early years of the Art Nouveau movement, these eye-catching motifs reflect the late-19th-century interest in Japanese art, as well as the fresh excitement of a blossoming style that's remained fashionable for well over a century. 66 full-color images feature luxurious patterns and ornaments designed for ceramics, furniture, textiles, walls, and ceilings.

Intended for decorating ceramics, furniture, textiles, walls and ceilings, these distinctive motifs (many heightened with gold) were formerly available only in antiquarian editions selling for $1,500 and more.
