Medea stands dagger in hand over her fallen children at sunset

Alphonse Mucha (1860–1939) became the defining voice of Art Nouveau after his landmark 1895 poster of Sarah Bernhardt made him overnight famous across Paris. His signature style — sinuous lines, radiant halos, and women adorned with botanical ornament — became so synonymous with the era that the French called the movement "le style Mucha." Beyond commercial posters, Mucha devoted his deepest energies to the Slav Epic, a cycle of monumental canvases celebrating Slavic history. No artist better captured the fin de siècle longing for beauty, harmony, and myth.
