Art Nouveau, beloved by Finns, is a strongly national style that flourished at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries as an application of international Art Nouveau. The motifs of Art Nouveau, which were comprehensive in their formal language and drew from nature and the past, spread rapidly throughout Finland and across different social classes, from elite villas to workers' wooden houses and factory products. The beautifully illustrated work introduces the reader to the characteristic vibrancy of Art Nouveau in furniture, lamps, dishes, textiles, wallpapers and buildings. The work illuminates the phases of the Paris Pavilion, Hvitträsk, the Iris Company and the Friends of Finnish Handicrafts, and also provides a glimpse into the highest quality industrial arts in other countries. A trip into the world of Art Nouveau is full of fresh energy and a flight of imagination!
