Antique Bronze Ewer adorned with a young seductive woman dressed in a thin draping gown. Estimated more than 75 yrs. old. Art Nouveau is a style of decorative art, architecture, and design prominent in western Europe and the US from about 1890 to 1910 and characterized by intricate linear designs and flowing curves based on natural forms. Art Nouveau is considered a "total" art style, embracing architecture, graphic art, interior design, and most of the decorative arts including jewelry, furniture, textiles, glass, household silver and other utensils, and lighting, as well as the fine arts. According to the philosophy of the style, art should be a way of life. For many well-off Europeans, it was possible to live in an art nouveau-inspired house with art nouveau furniture, silverware, fabrics, ceramics including tableware, jewelry, cigarette cases, etc. Artists desired to combine the fine arts and applied arts, even for utilitarian objects.
