"Tentation" [Temptation], lithograph from 1897, designed by Eugène Samuel Grasset and published by G. de Malherbe. Size: approx. 63 × 63 cm. Eugène Grasset (18451917) was a Swiss graphic designer and illustrator who spent most of his career in Paris, where he became one of the pioneers of Art Nouveau. Before fully devoting himself to graphic art, he experimented with ceramics and designed furniture and wallpaper. From about 1877 onward he focused almost entirely on illustration and lithography, making book illustrations, calendars, magazine covers, and decorative prints. In these works he developed a highly distinctive visual language in which line, flat colour areas, and ornament form a harmonious whole. This so-called panneau décoratif forms part of the series "Dix Estampes Décoratives (caractères de femmes, fleurs emblématiques)," published in an edition of 750 copies. In this series Grasset associates female figures with symbolic flowers and emotional states, closely intertwining decorative beauty with symbolic imagery. In Tentation, a young woman is depicted in profile, standing before a fruit tree whose branches are heavily laden with pale green apples. She reaches for one of the fruits and holds it in her hand, while her other hand rests protectively against her chest. Her expression suggests a hint of wonder. The scene refers to the biblical motif of temptation, yet without an explicit moral interpretation. The apple symbolizes desire, temptation, and knowledge, but also hesitation and inner doubt. Grasset presents the motif not as an action with consequences, but as a moment of contemplation. The decoratively stylized leaves, the repetition of forms in the background, and the carefully balanced colour palette structure the composition and lend the work a restrained, concentrated character. In this way Tentation is representative of Grasset's approach within early Art Nouveau, where symbolism and decorative design are closely intertwined. Price: Euro 1.950,-.…

"Danger", lithograph from 1897, designed by Eugène Samuel Grasset and published by G. de Malherbe. Dimensions approx. 91.5 × 56 cm. Eugène Grasset (18451917) was a Swiss graphic designer and illustrator who spent most of his career working in Paris, where he became one of the leading pioneers of Art Nouveau. After early experiments with ceramics and interior design, he devoted himself almost entirely to illustration and lithography from around 1877 onwards. In his graphic work, he developed a distinctive visual language characterized by flowing lines, flat areas of colour, and a strong decorative rhythm. This work, like Anxiété and Tentation, forms part of the series Dix Estampes Décoratives (caractères de femmes, fleurs emblématiques), issued in an edition of 750 copies. In this series, Grasset links female figures to abstract concepts and emotional states, articulated through a symbolic yet visually accessible imagery. In Danger, a confident young woman in a red dress is depicted, appearing aware of the threat behind her. To her left, a wolf leaps forward with bared teeth, suggesting vigilance and danger. In combination with the wolf, the red garment may evoke associations with the Little Red Riding Hood motif, albeit without explicit narrative elaboration. In the foreground bloom oleanders (Nerium oleander), an ornamental plant known for its toxicity, which here functions as the fleur emblématique for the concept of "danger." Grasset appears less concerned with illustrating a fairy tale than with visually exploring an abstract notion: danger as a mental and sensory experience. With Danger, Grasset demonstrates how decorative design and symbolic subject matter converge within early Art Nouveau. The poster is representative of his approach, in which ornament, figure, and meaning are elegantly interwoven. Price: Euro 2.150,- (incl. frame).…

The Twelve Months of the Year, colour chromotypographs designed by Eugène Grasset in 1894 and published by G. de Malherbe. Size (each image): approx. 20.5 × 15.5 cm. This refined series presents twelve stylized female figures - one for each month of the year - each depicted as a 'belle jardinière': an elegant young woman tending to a garden, dressed in seasonal attire adorned with motifs from the plant world. Their graceful poses reflect the hallmarks of Art Nouveau: strong composition, decorative filling of the picture plane, and an organic interplay between man and nature. Zodiac signs are subtly integrated into the fabric patterns, referencing the corresponding time of year. The designs are by Eugène Grasset (1845 - 1917), a key figure in the revival of the applied arts at the fin de siècle. Grasset championed an art rooted in the past - especially medieval traditions and Japanese woodblock prints - while also drawing renewed vitality from nature to shape a contemporary visual language. In 1896, the illustrations were repurposed for a luxurious calendar issued by the Parisian fashion house La Belle Jardinière. Located on the banks of the Seine near the Pont Neuf, the department store offered ready-to-wear clothing to a new middle-class clientele and enjoyed great success for several decades. The company was acquired in 1972 by Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy. Price: Euro 2.450,- (complete set of 12 prints). …
