Description from the seller

1 wall glass/crystal painting by artist Alphonse Mucha, from the precious stones series.
In this series of 'Precious Stones,' Mucha draws inspiration from female beauty; the gemstone will be the Ruby.
Each of them is located in a natural environment and is surrounded by a complex decorative frame that resembles a Gothic window.
Alphonse Mucha through women and femininity as a counterpoint to the coldness of the Industrial Revolution!
A rare and beautiful mirror filled with color and brightness.
This original and authentic painting is in very good condition with few signs of use, in its brown wooden frame with a gold border. The item you receive is the one shown in the photos. Shipping will be via DHL express.
I present here a brief history of the artist.
Alphonse Mucha, whose paintings became popular not only in his homeland but also in other countries, was able to achieve impressive success during his lifetime. At that time, he undertook serious work, such as the 'History of Germany'. The turning point in Mucha's destiny occurred in 1893 when he received the usual commission from the Renaissance Theater for the poster of the play 'Gismond'. Sara Bernard participated in the show. The great actress was fascinated by the work. She wanted to meet the poster's creator in person. She also later insisted that Alphonse become the chief decorator of the Renaissance Theater. Thus, Mucha unexpectedly became one of the most popular artists in Paris. He began to create posters, advertisements, and cards. His paintings started to adorn the most elegant restaurants and women's boudoirs. During this period, the artist Alphonse Mucha created the famous series of paintings 'The Seasons', 'Stars', 'Months'. Today, masterworks are included in the collections of museums in various countries around the world, and in Prague, there is a museum entirely dedicated to the work of this famous compatriot.
The most famous series of paintings
A fly wrote hundreds of paintings and posters throughout its life. Among the most famous works, a significant place is occupied by the renowned series 'The Seasons,' 'Flowers,' 'Months,' 'Precious Stones,' as well as the world-famous 'Slavic Epic.' Consider the history of the creation of the author's most famous paintings.
