Verneuil Art Nouveau Seahorse Tank Top T-Shirt

Elegant seahorses cling to undulating seaweed. You can almost feel the gentle sway of the water. Sophisticated palette of onyx black and chamoisee brown. One of M.P. Verneuil's signature designs and a fine example of Gilded Age grace and refinement. I love the subtle hand-stenciled effect. This would look smashing with khaki, black, red, olive drab -- it goes with just about anything! Available in all styles and sizes. Light colours only. This design will not print well on dark-coloured fabric. Matching tote/beach bag and more in my gallery. About the artist: Maurice Pillard-Verneuil studied under Art Nouveau master Eugene Grasset. An early interest in Japanese printmaking blossomed into a passion for Asian art after his visit to Southeast Asia. In love with nature and the natural world, he drew inspiration from plants, flowers, animals, insects and marine life. About this artwork:This particular design is from a suite of 60 colour lithographs after decorative Art Nouveau devices by Mucha, Verneuil and Auriol found in the book 'Combinaisons Ornementales se Multipliant à l'Infini à l'Aide du Miroir' (Decorative Combinations, Infinitely Multiplied with a Mirror) by George Auriol, pseudonym of Jean-Georges Huyot, journalist, poet, songwriter, painter and engraver. Published in the year 1900 by Librairie Centrale des Beaux Arts, Paris. It has been carefully and lovingly prepared for print by a professional graphic artist using state-of-the-art software. It is a joy to bring the best art of previous centuries into our own for everyday use and enjoyment. I hope you will enjoy wearing this top as much as I enjoyed working on the design.
