Alphonse Mucha

Alphonse Mucha , world-acclaimed Czech Art Nouveau artist. I searched the forums and there is no result for a specific thread for Alphonse Mucha.

He is one of my favorite illustrators.

The KING of illustration. If you disagree, you are wrong. I had to do a vintage tobacco poster, so I did Zig-Zag rolling papers, and this is how she turned out:

nice : ) very faithful to the style,quite a nice effect fourboltmain. I like the delicate nature of the women in his images, and how no matter how intricate the background he manages to mantain interest in the main character in the foreground. Thanks for posting, blackrose! His pictures always have this wicked atmosphere, very misterious and heavy, but a great effect overall.

I love love love his work!
There's so many details and the colouring is just amazing.
And the museum in Prague are fantastic (and so are the museum shop )

I'm much too lazy to find it now, but you guys have to search for his sculpture and furniture design. The man was ridiculous.
