Ethel Reed's 'Arabella and Araminta Stories' is a captivating Art Nouveau poster from 1895, advertising Gertrude Smith's book with stylised poppies and twin portraits. A striking piece of vintage poster art for the modern home.

This striking poster, 'Arabella and Araminta Stories', was created in 1895 by the American artist Ethel Reed (1874-1912). Reed, a prominent figure in the Art Nouveau movement, was known for her distinctive poster designs and illustrations. This piece advertises a book by Gertrude Smith, featuring Reed's illustrations. The poster showcases two young girls with matching blonde bobs, framed by stylised poppies in shades of coral and black. The bold typography and symmetrical composition are characteristic of Art Nouveau aesthetics, emphasising decorative elements and flowing lines. The limited colour palette of coral, black, and cream adds to the poster's visual impact, creating a harmonious balance between text and image. As a fine art print, this piece brings a touch of vintage charm and artistic flair to any interior. Its bold design makes it a captivating focal point for a living room, study, or hallway, while its historical significance adds depth and character to your home decor. The poster's Art Nouveau style complements both modern and traditional settings, making it a versatile addition to any art collection.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
