拍品專文

This pair of ornamental vases shows the interplay between natural motifs and abstraction that characterizes art nouveau. Another vase with matching peacock decoration is in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, accessible online at https://lacma.wordpress.com/2011/01/24/new-acquisitions-week-more-than-2 00-works-just-added
