Alphonse Mucha

The Abolition of Serfdom in Russia (1861). 1914.

It looks as if it was a huge painting. He did a good job of separating things without separating them. You can look at the huge background without losing the figures in the mid & foreground.



Meditation. 1886.

I love the title. It fits perfectly with this painting. It looks like a well-known person at that time almost out in nature.

Flower. 1894.
This is a great piece for women to model after. I applied the artist for having the women dressed... and having the flower around the flower.
