What’s the difference between Art Nouveau and Art Deco?
And what’s an easy way to tell the styles apart?
Art Nouveau is very romantic with swirling, fluid lines that are ornate and lyrical. It is very feminine and elegant.
Nouveau looks old fashioned.
Art Deco is geometric in shape…stark, dramatic, hard edged, built on planes, masculine in style and abbreviated. It has a very avante garde, modern look to it.
The difference between the two is like day and night…or better put..like the difference between man and woman……or the difference between Beardsley and Erte.
