Info Post
The style of the Art Nouveau Posters came forth within the final decade of the nineteenth century. People were getting tired of the “busy” Victorian style and were ready for something new, refreshing and different. The literal meaning of Art Nouveau is “New Art”. The term which first was seen around the 1880s was used about the artists greatly influenced by themes from Japanese, Rococo and Celtic Revival designs as well as the ‘Arts and Crafts movement. Animals, foliage and plants as well as other organic objects were incorporated into graceful art with soft smooth lines. It has come to describe the organic and flowing shapes of these decorative styles which first grew popular in France but was widely popular also in Germany, Belgium, Italy, Holland and Spain all the way to America across the ocean.
