"Art Nouveau was an artistic movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries that dominated architecture and the decorative arts in particular. It is characterized by the ‘whip-like’ line and draws its inspiration primarily from nature.Born as a reaction against the excesses of industrialization and the stifling reproduction of old styles, this movement experienced international growth.In order to renew the artistic vocabulary, other sources of inspiration were sought. In this way, Japanese art became—especially in France—a source of inspiration for artists beginning in the 1860s. This is how the term “Japonism” came into being. In nearly every artistic discipline, a Japanese stylistic influence was evident.In the field of glassmaking, around the 1880s, France experienced an artistic revolution. The general public was introduced to these objects at the World’s Fairs held in the French capital."
