The Moon Print by Alphonse Mucha at AllPosters.com

Pioneering Czechoslovakian artist Alphonse Mucha (1860 – 1939) created a sumptuous Art Nouveau style filled with soft colors, curving lines and ethereal women. Mucha was inspired to paint by the artwork he saw in churches. A starving artist in Paris, Mucha skyrocketed to fame after he created a life size poster for Sarah Bernhardt’s play, “Gismonda.” The poster, which differed from current artistic trends, made him a household name and earned him a six-year contract from Bernhardt. In the 1960’s, Mucha’s style was revived, especially in psychedelic posters.

Poster is made of 50% recycled fiber.

Poor Quality Wood Frame

Purchase Reason

Comments:

I originally purchased only the poster, trying to avoid the cost of framing by glueing it onto a foam board which was a disaster! So then, because I love the print so much, I ordered a framed version, paying close to a hundred dollars. The framing wasn't perfect, with small gaps where the wood comes together at the corners, but I can live with that. As I tried to hang it (very gently) on it's wire on the hook, the wire which was screwed into the wood frame pulled right out, splintering the frame and ripping the paper on the back. I was so angry, cursing my poor decision to pay 1/3 the price of good framing! So I pre-drilled holes and screwed the screws in; luckily the frame didn't splinter. It's hung now and looks really nice. It's what I could afford so I don't regret my choice.

I was not expecting the large blank sides, but otherwise nice poster. It was a gift of several posters and this, although not asked for, was the favorite.

Beautiful but so large.

By Small house

from Montana

Comments:

I think this is beautiful, but it is much larger than I expected. I'm not sure that I can keep it. Wish it came in a smaller size. I thought it was kind of expensive and so I may have to return it. It is such an unusual size that I can't find a frame for it.
