Poster design ‘La Garonne’ by Arthur Foache, 1898.
Description: In the 1890s Cassan Fils was one of the largest printers in Toulouse, and one of the best in France. They were an extremely dynamic company, who had opened up an office in Paris and commissioned posters by Baylac and Mucha. This near-perfect, Art Nouveau image is an allegory of the river La Garonne, that flows from the Pyrenees to Bordeaux. The exquisite drawing and design owe a lot to Alphonse Mucha (and particularly his poster for the Salon des Cent), but the colors are purely Foache’s. Proud of their craft, Cassan Fils used this beautiful print as a present for clients (both with and without text).

Artist Shintaro Ohata Seamlessly Blends Sculpture and Canvas to Create 3D Paintings
When first viewing the artwork of Shintaro Ohata up close it appears the scenes are made from simple oil paints, but take a step back and you’re in for a surprise. Each piece is actually a hybrid of painted canvas and sculpture that blend almost flawlessly in color and texture to create a single image. The cinematic figures are sculpted from polystyrene while the backgrounds are made from traditional painting techniques.
