Art Nouveau
Fin-de-siècle Paris: the Mecca of Art Nouveau. The great `world exhibitions' of the last decades of the nineteenth century had popularized a series of exceptional new scientific achievements which, via Paris, had spread their fame all over the world. A thousand novelties put an end for ever to the old traditional way of life, replacing it with a totally new technological reality and a new attitude to life, unmistakable in its style. Art Nouveau is not a uniform, codified phenomenon but a rich and varied brew, exemplified by a whole list of different personalities from Eiffel to Debussy, from Toulouse-Lautrec, Gauguin, Gallé and Guimard right up to Lalique - to say nothing of the `newcomers' like Mucha, from Prague, Bakst, with his Russian ballets or Boldini, with his portraits. It was certainly a great age, a great `epoch'; but it faded quickly.
