Alphonse Mucha (after) - Zodiaco - 1970s

An icon timeless of international modernism. A fascinating and majestic decorative panel that faithfully reproduces “Zodiac,” one of the most famous and beloved graphics by the Czech master Alphonse Mucha. Originally created as a calendar for the prestigious Paris art magazine La Plume, this subject embodies the quintessence of Belle Époque aesthetics. A magnetic female profile with regal and ethereal beauty, framed by a sinuous and luxuriant mane, typical of the “muchaesco” style. In the background, a halo-shaped disk stands out, finely incorporating the twelve zodiac signs, symbolizing cosmic harmony and the passage of time. The figure wears a sumptuous ceremonial headdress completed by richly detailed jewelry. The composition is enriched by a complex geometric border with Byzantine and Moorish-inspired botanical motifs. Warm ochre tones, antique gold, brown and burgundy that confer warmth, depth, and a touch of old-fashioned elegance to any setting.
