A woman poses for Alfons Mucha. I can't tell which is more beautiful, his actual paintings or the the photographs of the subjects? Women seem to be formed differently back then. More sensuous, fuller and infinately more sexy. (Not sure about the hairy armpits though!)

Trivia - Sarah Brenhardt commissioned Mucha on a six year contract to create all her posters, costumes and sets after he created the poster for her play Gismonda in 1895. He was an instant sensation and understandably so.

I love all of his work. I have 2 large posters in my bedroom that used to hang in the shop, Past Times windows - my mum kindly nabbed them for me. They make me feel calm. The fluidity of the subjects and the natural colours used are so theraputic and yet sexy at the same time.
