Bursting with more than 170 brilliant decorative compositions -- produced in the pochoir stencil technique of the "Roaring Twenties" -- this gallery of Art Deco illustrations showcases some of the most inspired and innovative images of modern design. Beautifully reproduced from rare original French portfolios, here are intricate latticeworks of geometrical motifs, bold abstracts, mysterious collages of symbolic forms and shapes, surreal portraits of birds and animals, whimsical Cubist-flavored constructions, and much more. Ready to delight artists, designers, craftspeople, and art historians, this imaginative collection of usable Jazz Age art will be used -- and enjoyed -- again and again.
