The piece features an elegant lady putting on her makeup. As in many of her works Irit Levy is interested in freezing a single moment in a human everyday life.

Its all about the Bee

Michelle Milton

The inspiration for this mosaic was from a visit to The Victoria and Albert museum. My favorite piece was an Art Nouveau broach with a bumble bee design on it. My mosaic was developed from this.

Paris 1897

Isabelle de sa Moreira

Considered as the master of "Art Nouveau", Alphons Mucha of Slavic origins enjoyed most of his success in Paris.

His first commissioned piece was a poster for one of the most famous actress of the era, Sarah Bernhardt.

Afterward he created various numerous  advertising posters and this one for the brand "job" rolling paper. In his graphic and non conventional style  he valorizes attractive women with abundant floaty flowered hair.

My desire to interpret one of his  paintings into a mosaic piece seemed appropriate as it reflects the rich era of Mosaic art  that flourished at the end of the 19Th and beginning of 20Th century.
