Art Nouveau
Art Nouveau was an international style of art, architecture and design that flourished around 1890–1910, known for flowing lines and natural forms. It drew strongly on Japanese woodblock prints and decorative arts, which became known in Europe after Japan's opening in the mid-nineteenth century. This influence is cited as part of the cultural legacy of the Tokugawa Shogunate.
