LINK:Movement: Art Nouveau
Artist: Koloman Moser
Work: Secession V
Date: 1899
Again, flowing, mystical, whimsical, and muted colors are the elements in this poster that classify it as an art nouveau piece.
Moser's typeface tends to be the element he uses in his posters that help characterize his designs. They are very structured in that they sit on straight horizontal lines and fit well with the compositions. He also sticks with the muted and natural colors. However, I do want to note that in this particular poster, he uses a lighter color to outline the nude which creates a look that makes the image look as if it were a negative of a photograph.
