Anton Seder - Chrysanthemum 1890.
This rare chromolithographed print is from Anton Seder’s Die Pflanze in Kunst und Gewerbe (The Plant in Art and Trade), published in 1890 by Gerlach & Schenk, in Vienna.
This work is one of the seminal influences in the Art Nouveau movement. Many of the designs were by the master himself, the great Anton Seder, and show his hallmark AS signature in varying forms, from prominent to the almost undetectable. Other artists for the work include Birkenger, E. Unger, Franz Patek, H. Kaufman & E. Klimt.
The designs Seder produced for this work are now icons of the era, still breathtaking in their beauty and originality. The colors are rich, often highlighted with genuine gold and silver illumination. The prints are not only very decorative but also very scarce - hence a treasured addition to the collection of the Art Nouveau enthusiast.
Size: 14.75in x 21in (37.5cm x 53cm).
Some age related toning to margins but image bright and colourful - please check image carefully
