"At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Art Nouveau was the boldest and most fashionable style in both Europe and America. It could be seen in the ornate ironwork of the new Paris metro stations, the curved asymmetry of Lalique's jewelry, and Tiffany's Japanese-inspired glasswork. Art Nouveau brought a new decorative language to furniture, jewelry, and graphic art, but also to architecture, sculpture, and painting. Known by several names – Jugendstil in Germany, Secession in Austria, the Modernist movement in Catalonia – it was a truly international new art form for an era of explosive change. This is the first book to study Art Nouveau worldwide in the context of the era's themes: from fin-de-siècle anxieties about the pressures of modern life to nationalism, spiritualism, the emancipation of women, and the heroic cult of youth."
