The prints on the following pages are a small portion of our
inventory. Please feel free to contact us if you are looking for a specific print or artist. We have divided
our inventory into three categories: French Belle Epoque, American Color Woodcuts and Arts and Crafts Movement, and Pacific
Asia.
French Prints of the Belle Epoque
The Belle Epoque era encompasses the years c.1895-1910.
The term is mostly associated with French art, but also applies to work done in the rest of Europe as well. It is characterized
by images of cafe life, beautiful women, as well as life of the streets - prostitutes, beggars and vagabonds. The graphic
artists of this period produced not only prints, but like many other artists, created posters, sheet music invitations and
magazine illustrations.
