Graphics 1900 contains approximately 150 exceptional designs from the turn of the 20th century. These designs were made for the decoration of textiles, but are generic in the sense that they are typical of a graphic style from that period. The style represented by these designs is very modern' in nature. It has more in common with the styles that emerged in the 1930s than with the Art Nouveau style that was in vogue at the time they were made.
