ART NOUVEAU

The major precursor to the shift from Art Nouveau towards this new modern style was the Scottish architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh 1868-1928 whose first works had elements of Art Nouveau but he then began to favor a more stark elegant and geometrically inspired style. Art Nouveau was primarily a decorative style whose favorite pattern was the whiplash line and took its name from the Parisien shop opened by the entrepreneur Siegfied Bing in 1895. Called Jugendstil (youth style) in Germany and Austria, Stile Liberty (after the London Store Liberty) in Italy, and Modernista in Spain./
