Art Nouveau - Wallpaper and Scan Gallery

Art Nouveau is an art style that was popularized at the turn of the 20th century (1890s-1920s), first in Europe and then internationally. Art Nouveau pieces tend towards curvilinear forms and organic (especially floral) motifs, often integrating text directly into the design.
Art Nouveau is mostly known for its poster prints (it was a popular form for advertisements) and jewelry but its forms can be found in various other mediums including ceramics and architecture.
