About the Item
Belgian poster artist Adolphe Crespin applies a motif of bees and drafting materials in one of the finest examples of his work, a poster for architect Paul Hankar. The two met at the Ecole d’Art in Schaerbeek while Crespin was a professor of drawing and worked collaboratively on several building projects, including the design for Hankar’s own home. Heavily inspired by Japanese art and design, Crespin was instrumental to the development of Art Nouveau in Belgium.
Hankar was very active, designing over fourteen private homes in the Art Nouveau and Japonist styles within twelve years and would later influence the artists of the Vienna Secession and the Darmstadt Artists' Colony in Germany.
While this poster was printed in multiple sizes and formats, this edition of 40 strikes on Japon paper from 1897 is the most desirable and extremely scarce edition. Japon paper allows inks to rest upon its surface rather than being absorbed by a more permeable paper stock. The rare, small format poster lithographs created at this time were printed using rich, dense, lead inks. Each color is brilliant, vibrant, and impossible to recreate with today's soy based inks.
This lithograph was published in 1897 by Verlag von Gerhard Kühtmann in Dresden. This artwork is presented in archival rag mat and arrives accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
Notable museum collections containing this work include: Museum of Modern Art, New York City (large-format version)

Frem Program Anno 1900 by Louis Moe, Danish Art Nouveau mermaid poster
By Louis Moe
Located in Chicago, IL
Each country that approached the ideology of Art Nouveau clearly had their own unique contribution to the movement. The popularity of French Art Nouveau became globally recognized and produced in large numbers. While we recognize the rarity and extraordinary work of Italian Art Nouveau, or Stile Liberty, as it was known in that country, very little of this art survived and in very small quantities. What’s impossibly rare Scandinavian Art Nouveau...
