At the end of the 19th century, Alphonse Mucha created a sensation throughout the streets of Paris through his posters representing the French actress Sarah Bernhardt. It was an overnight sensation and announced the new artistic style and its creator to the citizens of Paris, Art Nouveau. This brought fame and reputation to the poster artist.However, Mucha’s talent was never confined to lithography. Shading the world with a colorful sensuality, Mucha’s art expresses itself as much on the monumental decorative panels of a living room as on small delicate China pieces.The author enables us to discover all the richness and variety of this fin-de-siècle artist.

A striking tribute to Burne-Jones's favourite subjects: graceful girls, angels, gods, heroes and heroines. Generally melancholy-looking, thoughtful, or in repose, the subjects of Burne-Jones's early paintings bore much similarity to Rossetti who had persuaded him to give up theology in favor of art at Oxford. A lifelong friend of William Morris, Burne-Jones's output was prodigious by any standards - over 1,000 cartoons for stained glass alone, and over 200 oil paintings in his lifetime. Instantly recognisable his works now grace the Tate Gallery, V&amp;A, Walker Art Gallery, and Christ Church Oxford, in addition to often being seen adorning cards, gifts, and objects d'art. The book depicts his beautiful artwork throughout its pages. Patrick Bade, author of the text, is a leading art historian and international guest speaker.

 From its prehistoric origins to the conceptual modernity of the 20th century, sculpture has literally and figuratively moulded the art world. Offering an integral vision of the evolution of forms across civilisations and epochs, 30 Centuries of Sculpture presents the masterpieces of sculpture that, with their intriguing silhouettes, have shaped the current notion of beauty. Sculptures can reflect an era, an artist, or his public; this gallery in high relief presents, with its numerous references, detailed commentaries on works, and biographies of artists, an open door to history and art, and an ideal guide for both students and neophytes.

  Gustav Klimt (1862-1918), was one of the most influential artists at the end of the 19th century and was the founder of the Viennese Secession movement. He used the movement to express his criticism of traditional art, which was characterised by its opposition to change and the refusal to countenance a certain vision of Modernism. Klimt took his inspiration from the slow but unstoppable decline of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the multitude of cultures from which it was composed.   Klimt was an artist of great eroticism and sensuality and together with Kokoschka and Schiele, he is one of the great masters of Expressionism. This book brings together Klimt’s finest paintings, along with a text that demonstrates the extraordinary eclecticism of this great artist.

Whether madonna, muse or temptress, women have been a source of artistic inspiration throughout history. In the Reveries series, Parkstone pays tribute to the important contribution women have made to artists by uplifting their spirits and giving free reign to their fantasies.

This new genre of art book offers a glimpse into the private lives of some of the most influential artists of modern times.
