Art Nouveau Owls - Apron Schürze

Art Nouveau was an international movement and style of art, architecture and applied art — especially the decorative arts — that peaked in popularity at the turn of the 20th century (1890–1905). The name 'Art nouveau' is French for 'new art. A reaction to academic art of the 19th century, it is characterized by organic, especially floral and other plant-inspired motifs, as well as highly-stylized, flowing curvilinear forms. Art Nouveau is an approach to design according to which artists should work on everything from architecture to furniture, making art part of everyday life. Owls in a row on a sand-colored background really show off the birds' taupe-colored bodies and deep cranberry-colored feet and beaks.
