Alfons Mucha · Les Maîtres de l'Affiche, vol. 3, 1895
What it is
Plate 114 of volume 3, catalogued on Commons under Mucha's Lorenzaccio poster.
Why it matters
The extreme vertical proportion is the signature of Mucha's theatrical work — a figure stretched the full height of a column, ornament packed into the margins.
What to notice
Mucha's Lorenzaccio design, the tall narrow format that made the Sarah Bernhardt posters famous.
For one decade, the street was the gallery.
