19053220535<i>4to 10 ff; 52 monochrome illustrations of work by Mucha and 28 illustrations by other French Art Nouveau artists; in the original decorated wrappers.</i><br /><br />A very rare trade catalogue of mural panels and other graphic designs mainly by the famous Czech Art Nouveau artist Alphonse Mucha 1860-1939 but also including a selection of works by other French artists such as Cossard and Sonrel. Many works offered here for sale have subsequently become icons of the French Art Nouveau movement. His lithographed panel sets of "Les Quatre Saisons" Les Fleurs "Les Heures du Jour" and "Les Arts" seem by today's standards almost absurdly cheap at between 30 and 40 francs each whilst smaller posters calendars and menu cards are even more modestly priced. The second part of the catalogue presents the works of 8 other French artists who interpret the vivid colours and flowing vegetative forms of Art Nouveau in a variety of ways. Those such as Cossard and Sonrel demonstrate the influence of Mucha's style which had been established in the first poster he made for the actress Sarah Bernardt in 1894. Others are more circumspect in their adoption of the style adhering more to the 'chocolate box' school of illustration. A rare catalogue valuable not only as a collection of Mucha's work but also as an indication of Continental popular taste in prints of the period. With the Dutch retailers stamp of C. L. Petersen on the upper cover. paperback

br. È a Praga che inizia il racconto della vita di Alfons Mucha, in quel palazzo malinconico che gli fu offerto negli ultimi anni della sua vita, prima che i nazisti lo imprigionassero, accelerando così la sua fine. Qui Patrizia Runfola incontra Ji?í, il figlio dell'artista, e di qui muove per un viaggio attraverso il tempo e lo spazio, lungo le tante strade che attraversano la «carta geografica di un'anima». La precoce vocazione artistica alimentata dalla musica e da una profonda religiosità; Praga e Parigi dove incontra molti grandi del suo tempo (Strindberg, Gauguin, Sarah Bernhardt); le prime esperienze nel teatro, dove lavorerà anche come attore; il soggiorno nel castello del conte Khuen Belasi, che gli consentirà di studiare all'Académie Julian; il lavoro come illustratore; l'America, dove conosce Charles Crane che finanzierà il suo progetto più grande, l'Epopea slava; il ritorno nella Praga delle avanguardie artistiche; infine, la nascita tanto desiderata dello Stato cecoslovacco, per cui disegna il primo francobollo. Prefazione di Claudio Magris. Con un saggio di Gérard-Georges Lemaire.
