捷克艺术家、新艺术运动大师阿尔丰斯·穆夏（1860–1939）以其极具辨识度的装饰风格，定义了19世纪末的视觉风貌。他的作品采用动人的桃色、金色、赭石色和橄榄色，将图案、花卉与美丽女性融为一体，构成极具吸引力的画面，成为美好时代的典范。

穆夏的作品广泛渗透到当时的插画、海报、明信片和广告设计领域。他为明星女演员莎拉·伯恩哈特创作的醒目海报尤为著名。除了这些精致的装饰性作品外，穆夏还怀有强烈的政治理念。在其鸿篇巨制《斯拉夫史诗》系列中，他表达了对泛斯拉夫主义的坚定支持，倡导捷克及斯拉夫各民族从奥匈帝国中获得政治独立。

本书是与穆夏基金会合作编纂而成，展示了穆夏的重要作品，并全面介绍了他的创作范围，从图案装饰到书籍插画、海报、摄影作品以及大型绘画等。

With his instantly recognizable decorative style, Czech artist and Art Nouveau master Alphonse Mucha (1860–1939) defined the look of the fin-de-siècle. In evocative shades of peach, gold, ochre, and olive, his seductive compositions of patterns, flowers, and beautiful women became paradigms of the Belle époque years.

Mucha’s work permeated illustration, posters, postcards, and the advertising designs of his day. His striking posters of star actress Sarah Bernhardt were particularly famous. Alongside this delicate decorative work, Mucha also harbored strongly felt political ideas. With his monumental cycle The Slav Epic, he expressed his staunch support for Pan-Slavism, promoting the political independence of the Czech and Slavic nations from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Compiled in association with the Mucha Foundation, this book presents key works and introduces the full reach of Mucha’s ?uvre from patterned decoration to his book illustrations, posters, photographs and monumental paintings.
