| Description |
A 1925 mirror and console by metalsmith Edgar Brandt, on display as part of the "Jazz Age" exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. Brandt (1880-1960) was a French metalworker who lived in Paris. The mirror frame and console are made of wrought iron, and the top of the console is marble. Smaller items like these were designed for use in apartments. Works like this became common in the 1920s as apartment living became the norm in large European and American cities. The motif is Art Nouveau. Art Nouveau was a style of art popular between 1890 and 1910. It was a reaction to the academism, Beaux-Arts, Neoclassicism, and Romanticism of the 19th century. Art Nouveau emphasized natural forms, particularly the curved lines of plants and flowers. Art Nouveau fell out of style by 1910, replaced by Art Deco and then Modernism. The scrolled ironwork and tassel-like pendant mimic giltwood furniture.
