Art Nouveau

This Creative Paper Book draws on the celebrated Art Nouveau design style that took Europe by storm at the turn of the 20th century.

 

When colour lithography and commercial printing advanced, a new visual language defined by whiplash curves, stylised botanicals and the female form appeared across posters, packaging, jewellery and architecture, bringing beauty and modernity to everyday life. 

 

Here, Art Nouveau artworks and motifs have been reproduced on high-quality printed papers. Presented in a neat and compact book, pages of postcards and gift tags are perforated for easy tear-out, while greetings cards and envelopes can be cut, folded and sealed with the decorative stickers provided.

 

Imagery highlights key figures of the movement, from Alphonse Mucha’s iconic poster designs and Aubrey Beardsley’s striking linework to Peter Behrens’ The Kiss. Further references include cover art from the German magazine Jugend and elegant advertising graphics by Henri Meunier.

 

Designed for special handwritten correspondence, papers in this eye-catching collection can also be used for decorative craft projects. A premium finish makes the book ideal for gifting, as well as for personal use.
