Book Description
Among the most successful applications of the curvilinear style of Art Nouveau movement were the frames, borders, and similar decorations that filled the books, magazines, posters, and advertising of the time. Today, a century later, working artists continue to rely on Art Nouveau ornamentation, embellishing a wide range of copy and typography with fin de siècle aesthetics. This indispensable collection presents 315 royalty-free Art Nouveau frames and borders for the designer, artist, and advertiser looking for an affordable way to enliven any graphic message. Choose from floral and foliate motifs, butterflies and peacocks, female figures, sensuous cherubs, asymmetrical shapes, and undulating lines — in a variety of shapes and sizes. All illustrations are directly and immediately usable. Printed in crisp black-and-white images on repro-quality paper, they are perfect, inexpensive embellishments for whatever your graphic project — menu, invitation, advertisement, greeting card, catalog, or poster.
