This reverential poster for a Prague architectural and building-trades fair reveals the creator's respect and admiration for his fellow Czech citizen and great Art Nouveau master Mucha.This reverential poster for a Prague architectural and building-trades fair was designed by someone who clearly wised to be a Mucha. The heroic poster of a seated woman, the sepentine hair, the elaborate, halo-like mosaic, all reveal the creator's respect and admiration for his fellow Czech citizen and great Art Nouveau master. In the forefront is the near-nude messenger bearing the symbols of the architect's trade.
