Description: Around 1900, the tile underwent a veritable heyday on the interface between industrialised manufacturing methods and artistic design. With its lavish use of ornamentation, Art Nouveau gave rise to an inexhaustible diversity of new pictorial motifs. This catalogue sheds light on the creative impulses that especially England exerted on the tremendous boom experienced by tiles ? and includes a history of the medium in Continental Europe. 00Exhibition: Museum Künstlerkolonie, Institut Mathildenhöhe, Darmstadt, Germany (12.03-28.05.2017).
