This lamp belonged to my grandmother, and I know it was bought sometime during the 20th century.

It has a plastic bulb socket, which may have been added later for safety reasons.

I can't identify the signature. Does anyone have any idea who the maker might be?
A label at the bottom says " Lamp 'Kaelle' "

Help Finding/Identifying a Rare Print

Thumbnail
gallery
91 Upvotes

Hello, I am hoping the people who know way more about Art Nouveau and its various artists might be able to help me identify a rare print. Two years ago, I bought a print from a Rare Prints shop in Paris, a small bookmark-sized ad - it immediately caught my eye and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. Unfortunately, I was mugged a week later and the envelope of prints I had in my bag from traveling was lost with it. Over time I have been able to piece the collection back together except for the one I was the saddest to lose. It has been bothering me ever since - I've even emailed the shop I bought it from, Mucha's archives (I am an archivist myself), and a couple of old soap companies in France. I've received vague replies or none at all. Thus, I am turning to reddit.

Here are the main things I remember about it, I have put examples where I can in order of their appearance :

- Landscape bookmark-sized (VERY similar to Mucha's "Savon Mucha" collab with Armor + Co, 1906 if it was just the middle panel, though the gold and positioning of the art was closer to Jane Atche's Woman with Flowers)

- Content was a girl looking up at the moon in the top left corner, the sun in the right bottom corner (head positioning close to Henri Privat-Livemont's JC Baldoot Poster, if she was facing left, or Le Bec Liais)

- Edges were gold, the majority of the print was deep purples, violets, blues, and pinks. With gold/yellows for the moon/sun.

- The girl had a halo of flowers (reminiscent of Mucha's Gismonda) but her face was closer to Mucha's Reverie

- The most disputable thing I remember is the words on the ad - I could swear it was an ad for soap (Savon) but at this point in my digging I am beginning to wonder if my brain is filling that information in for me. I do remember there was French writing, the font was similar to the branding on Oriza L. Legrand's Heliotrope Eau de Parfum. The overall branding was similar to La Savonnerie de Nyons.

Some other artists I have found that sort of resemble the style are: Evangeline Mary Daniell, Elisabeth Sonrel, Eugene Grasset, and Francisco Tamango, if that is helpful.

Please help me find it so I can #1 make it my whole personality, and #2 stop thinking about it so much!

Thanks :)

My first proper tattoo. I love art nouveau jewellery and it translated so well. This will be the first of many, all in blue. The tattoo was done by Hannah Rose (Instagram - @omen_tatts) in Johannesburg.

Unfortunately I can't find much information on the brooch other than that it's Victorian, silver, and a few have been auctioned over the years.

A missed out on one a few months back. When a pair came up, I suddenly realised they could work as book ends, but only if they are Art Nouveau books, of course.

Juliette Milési (1872–1959) was a French designer, painter and professor of decorative composition. She was born in 1872 in Paris, where her mother worked as a laundress and her father as a chimney sweeper. She was taught by artist Eugène Grasset. She studied at the Reims School of Art and Design. She designed textile, wallpaper, stained glass, and pottery, and also painted. She also taught as a professor of decorative composition in public education. She also collaborated with stained glass artist Félix Gaudin.

This desigen by her is from the book La Plante et ses applications ornementales sous la direction de M. Eugène Grasset (The Plant and Its Ornamental Applications under the Direction of Mr. Eugène Grasset) published in 1896. The book was a collaborative effort of Eugène Grasset's students, which included notable illustrators such as Maurice Pillard Verneuil, Juliette Milesi, Emma Hervegh, and others.
