{"product_id":"alfons-mucha","title":"Alfons Mucha","description":"At the beginning of the twentieth century, when Alfons Mucha went to the United States for four years as a lecturer, the world-famous poster designer, Art-Nouveau book illustrator, designer, photographer and painter was greeted with enthusiasm. Mucha is regarded as one of the most important representatives of Jugendstil; he knew how to move between the various genres more skilfully than virtually any other artist of his day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter training as a stage decorator in Vienna, Mucha travelled via Munich to Paris. There he created a stir in the 1890s with his stylistically refined and elegantly executed posters. These designs were not only his artistic breakthrough; they also revolutionised the aesthetic of what was still a new medium. Mucha's later works also demonstrated the inimitable \"Mucha style,\" which celebrated floral elements, lines and beauty and which is lavishly illustrated in this book.","brand":"Hirmer Verlag GmbH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42664263942180,"sku":"9783777434889","price":19.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9783777434889.jpg?v=1777355760","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/alfons-mucha","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
