    You may have found the technique by now, but most of his work was done in colored lithograph.

    research* clear* ( Sorry for the typos.)

    Mucha in my opinion is one of the most over-looked artists, he was truly a amster draftsman and painter. It’s a shame more people don’t know about his Slavic Epic series, and other works of his. Hhe had his hands in jewelery and set/costume design, he was a very talented man.

    Decorative Art is defined as; “Ornamenting, or enriching, but more importantly in art emphasizing the two-dimensional nature of an artwork, or any of its elements. Decorative Art emphasizes the essential flatness of a surface.”

    Mucha has been seen as a ‘decorative” artist by many because of his heavy influence in the Art Nouveau movement, which is seen as a ‘trend’ in the art world, in my opinion. But if you do some reaserch, it is claer to see he was NOT a simple decorative artist at all.

  14. jawsquid says:

    I think I saw this doc (or one remarkably similar) in the Mucha Museum on a recent visit to Prague! Which is hardly any help to me now, when I’d like very much to see it.

    It’s amazing how many posts there are requesting a full Internet version without response. I thought the magical Internet just took care of stuff like that on its own.

  15. MiniKitty says:
