About the Item
Alphonse Mucha's name shines like that of a visionary artist who left an indelible mark on the aesthetics of the early 20th century. The year 1902 saw the publication of "Documents décoratifs", a seminal work edited by Émile Lévy and printed in the artistic heart of the world, Paris. This collection of exquisite prints bears witness to Mucha's distinctive style and his significant influence on the decorative arts.
"Documents décoratifs" is a compendium of Mucha's iconic designs, bringing together a multitude of intricate details, organic forms and a celebration of feminine beauty. Every page of this masterpiece reflects Mucha's commitment to creating art that is not only visually enchanting, but also imbued with profound meaning.
Émile Lévy, an eminent Parisian publisher and art dealer, was instrumental in recognizing and promoting Mucha's unique talent. Thanks to their collaboration, they produced a body of work that adorned the walls of many homes during the Belle Époque, contributing to the wider cultural tapestry of the time.
Printed in Paris, a city steeped in artistic tradition, the "Documents décoratifs" benefited from the excellence of Parisian printing techniques.
The series encapsulates Mucha's broader artistic philosophy and his aspiration to bridge the gap between the fine and applied arts.

So wrote John Tiller, whose theatrical school produced the dancing ladies who starred in the original 'Pony Ballet' and whose troupes of 'Tiller Girls' were in great demand for shows not only in London but in Paris, Amsterdam, Turin, and New York. He and Mrs. Tiller began training youngsters at the age of nine. In the schools in London and Manchester, the girls had regular academic studies as well as dancing and were placed in Christmas pantomimes when still children. When they grew up, they were given jobs in various Tiller troupes (each managed by a mature woman who watched out for them)...
