Antique Signed Alphonse Mucha Original 'Autumn' UB French Postcard c1900

His name is synonymous with decorative beauty, ethereal long haired maidens and exquisite workmanship.

His original posters from the 1890's sell for six figures, making this original postcard from c1900 a very collectible piece of Art Nouveau memorabilia.

Entitled simply 'Autumn', it features a delicately pastel rendering of a beautiful young woman in a Greek style flowing white gown. Her cascading red hair is adorned with flowers.

Designed in 1896 as one of his famous Panneau (Panels) it was originally printed by F Champenois, Paris.

With an early un-divided back (c1900) it has a French address verso and a long message in tiny writing on the front. There is no stamp or franking mark.

The artist's signature is lower left.

There is some all-over age related soiling and album corner marks. The rounded corners are original to the postcard and not due to wear.

A highly collectible and affordable piece of Art Nouveau history, and perfect for framing.
