THE ART
NOUVEAU The Art Nouveau Was a period that lasted from 1860 till 1928. It had influences from the celtic ornament, the Arts and Crafts period, it was asian inspired. Some of the pictures that I have selected as an example show how the Art Nouveau had a great influence in product design, and architecture. the peacock figure was also really popular during this period. It was something different, so it portraits this new art at its best.
