Los Cigarrillos Paris - Alphonse Mucha Greeting Card

BLANK INSIDE

In a striking 1897 tobacco advertisement by Alphonse Mucha, a glamorous woman lets us know that "Paris cigarettes are the best!" Although the advertisement is in Spanish, it originates from France. During that era, cigarettes were commonly associated with women, while cigars were considered the preferred choice among gentlemen. See this image as an art print!

Mucha (1860-1939) was a visionary artist whose artistry and creativity shaped the Art Nouveau movement! Born in 1860 in Moravia, now the Czech Republic, Mucha's artistic journey took him from a struggling artist to an internationally renowned master of his craft. With his distinctive style characterized by intricate patterns, flowing lines, and ethereal female figures, Mucha's art played a significant role in shaping the visual aesthetics of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
