Art Nouveau was an influential artistic and design movement that flourished between 1890 and 1910, embracing organic forms, flowing lines, and intricate details. It sought to break away from historical styles, emphasizing nature-inspired motifs, craftsmanship, and a harmonious integration of art into everyday life.
Key Characteristics of Art Nouveau:
Curving, Asymmetrical Lines – Inspired by vines, waves, and floral patterns, creating a sense of movement
Nature-Inspired Motifs – Common elements include flowers, leaves, insects, and female figures with flowing hair
Ornate and Decorative Style – Found in architecture, furniture, jewelry, ceramics, and glasswork
Fine Craftsmanship – A rejection of mass production in favor of handcrafted artistry
