Mucha Prints is a new gallery based in South London with an online service too which aims to bring the works of Czech artist Alphonse Mucha to the masses. The artist is much loved around the world and with it's huge numbers of art fans, London is an obvious choice for those looking to discover more about him.
The gallery also offers other Art Nouveau painters that you might also enjoy upon your visit.
Mucha paintings are more often that not purchased as art prints rather than handmade reproductions because this is the medium for which most were originally designed, and are therefore best suited. The level of detail make handmade painted versions very expensive, if done accurately, and so art prints are an excellent, cheaper alternative which most people will go for.
The talents of Mucha are known to have influenced many future artists who very much enjoyed the foundations of the Art Nouveau scene, which he himself had laid down through the innovative and charming work that he had produced.
The likes of Toulouse-Lautrec have also created a career based on a similar type of imaginative illustrative works which seem particularly popular in the modern era with art buyers who see them as representing a classic period in history.
