Alphonse Mucha's Le Laurier (Laurel), 1901
Le Laurier (Laurel), 1901 by Alphonse Mucha (color lithograph).
Like its companion pieceLe Lierre (Ivy), the wonderful trompe l'oeil effect gives this work an earthy, garden feel and a tactile appeal. You want to actually reach out and feel the texture of the tile mosaics. The Arts and Crafts Movement influence is stronger and the palette more restrained in these two pieces than in most of Mucha's other works, yet that lyrical Mucha magic is as potent as ever.
Now you can enjoy this beautiful work of art every time you write a note. It gives me great pleasure to bring the best art of past centuries into our own for everyday use and enjoyment. Please see my gallery for the matching coffee mugs and many other coordinating items.
Blank inside. Add text to turn it into a greeting card, if you wish. I also have the matching postage stamps, postcards, address labels and more. See the my gallery's Alphonse Mucha Laurel Collection for all the coordinating items.
PS: If you're wondering about those funky lines in the photo, they're from the watermark (to protect the image) and will not appear on the printed product.
