Art Nouveau Motifs and Vignettes by Carol Belanger Grafton

Art Nouveau Motifs and Vignettes by Carol Belanger Grafton

Here is a dazzling collection of over 300 permission-free images representing the finest achievement in Art Nouveau design. Selected from archives of rare materials long out of print, these engaging designs range from a simple medallion, a small frame, and a tiny flourish to large and imposing panels, vignettes, and borders. The panels and vignettes depict such subjects as a goddess of the harvest, a praying knight, a preening peacock, and a lavish floral display. The borders and frames interweave a host of decorative elements, among them flowers, plants, birds, and animals.
This rich treasury of Art Nouveau design offers commercial artists, graphics and textile designers, and craftspeople authentic turn-of-the-century ambiance that will give special flair to advertisements, fabric designs, decorations, craft projects, and more.
Original Dover (1989) publication.

French illustrator Gustave Doré (1833-83) began his prolific career at the age of 15, and his dramatic engravings have exercised an incalculable influence over latter-day artists. The remarkable scope of his work ranges from Milton, Dante, and the Bible to Rabelais, Shakespeare, and street scenes of 19th-century London.
