This beautifully illustrated book is a celebration of Art Deco's expression through the graphic arts and illustration. Divided into three sections - the movement, its fashion and advertising - the reader gains great insight into the artists and innovators that helped popularize the Art Deco movement, such as Georges Barbier, Erte, Cassandre and Paul Colin. Though the focus for this intriguing book is based on the graphic arts, there are numerous examples of their impact upon other facets of the Art Deco movement. Nestled amongst posters and paintings, sculpture and jewellery assert their similarity, whether through line, form or theme.
