Publisher's Synopsis
The Modern Poster is a book written by Arsene Alexandre and published in 1895. It is a comprehensive study of the poster art movement of the late 19th century, which was characterized by bold, colorful designs and innovative typography. Alexandre explores the history and development of the poster, from its origins in advertising and propaganda to its emergence as an art form in its own right. He examines the work of prominent poster designers such as Jules Cheret, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Alphonse Mucha, and analyzes the techniques and styles they employed. The book includes over 200 illustrations of posters, many of which are reproduced in full color, providing a vivid visual record of this exciting period in graphic design history.
