EDITORS COMMENTS
or "Notice to Artists and Artisans, October 1895," is a captivating print by the Belgian artist Georges Lemmen. This exquisite artwork, created in the late 19th century, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the time. The print, which measures an impressive 13.2 x 18.3 cm, is a masterpiece of Art Nouveau design, characterized by its flowing, organic lines and intricate detail. The composition of the print is simple yet effective, with the title "Avis aux Artistes et Artisans" written in elegant lettering in both black and red on a tan Japanese paper. The title is framed by a delicate border adorned with intricate floral motifs, adding to the overall aesthetic appeal of the piece. The text of the print is written in French and is a notice to artists and artisans, inviting them to attend an exhibition or conference. The purpose of the event is not explicitly stated, but the call to "reunir les artistes et artisans de tous les ordres" (reunite artists and artisans of all kinds) suggests that it was an opportunity for creative professionals to come together and share their work and ideas. The use of letterpress in black and red on tan Japanese paper adds to the authenticity and historical significance of the print. The choice of paper and printing technique was common during the late 19th century and adds to the overall charm and character of the artwork. This beautiful print by Georges Lemmen is a reminder of the importance of artistic communities and the role they play in the development and evolution of art. It is a valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century art and a testament to the enduring appeal of Art Nouveau design. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this piece in its collection, allowing future generations to appreciate the beauty and significance of this unique work.
