The Winter

Alphonse Mucha created a series of posters titled 'The Seasons' in 1896, which became one of his most iconic works. Each image in the series depicts a woman personifying a season of the year, with details that capture the essence of each period.

Spring: The woman is surrounded by blooming flowers, dressed in soft pastel tones, symbolizing rebirth and renewal of nature.
2. Summer: Usually represented with warm and bright tones, the summer woman can be seen with wildflowers and wheat, symbolizing abundance and heat.
Autumn: Characterized by rich, earthy colors such as reds and golds, the woman is often surrounded by fallen leaves and ripe fruits, representing the harvest.
Winter: The figure is wrapped in heavier clothing, with a cooler color palette of blues and whites, surrounded by snow and bare branches, symbolizing the quiet and cold of the season.

These works reflect Mucha's ability to combine decorative elements with human figures, creating harmonious compositions that capture the natural beauty of each season. He is known for his unique style, which heavily influenced graphic design and decorative art at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Reproductions of these works are quite popular and continue to be appreciated for their elegant and timeless style.

The frames are original, and both the frames and the artwork are in excellent condition for their age.
Check through the photos, thank you.

Seller's Story

I am passionate about art, antiques, and decorative objects with historical and aesthetic value. I carefully select unique pieces for auction, prioritizing those that stand out for their originality, quality, and history. I have a special affinity for antique mirrors inspired by the work of Alphonse Mucha, acquired from private collections and antique shops in Portugal and France. I also place great importance on pieces made of carved wood, especially in gilded relief, which represent the refinement and craftsmanship of classical decorative arts.
