Alphonse Mucha Art Nouveau Beautiful Lady 1898 Postcard

This postcard exemplifies the Art Nouveau movement, characterized by its distinctive sinuous lines, organic forms, and decorative aesthetic. The elegant female figure, flowing hair, and intricate floral motifs are hallmarks of the style, often associated with the renowned Czech artist Alphonse Mucha, who popularized this artistic language across Europe from the late 1890s through the early 1900s. His work frequently combined idealized women with natural elements and elaborate borders, creating a harmonious and decorative whole.
