Personal Review: Art Nouveau Floral Patterns and Stencil
Designs in Full Color (Dover Pictorial Archive Series) by M. P.
Verneuil
I have about two dozen books specifically purporting to be Art Nouveau
'collections', and NOT ONE, or even THREE COMBINED, come close to
capturing what THIS book offers, albeit in the "floral" patterns category...
To artists looking for a definitive 'starter' source, in the art of the period, for
repurposing in art, crafts and decor (ie: wallpaper, fabric, pottery,
woodcarving, etc.), pick up a copy of this book and forget the rest! I was
able to find not only what I needed for several initial projects, but was
inspired to START more new projects based on the sparkling ideas
inspired by this plethora of lush color images. Only wished a CD-ROM was
available to accompany this book with hi-res digital images, as it would
have made importing images to my computer (for re-sizing, tiling, color
changes, etc.) much easier than hand-scanning... Only my collection of
(specifically) Alphonse Mucha art books surpasses the value of "Art
Nouveau Floral Patterns & Stencil Designs", and that is only because I
have not YET found a like compilation of M. P. Verneuil 'figure' designs.
