Pictures by Alphonse Mucha
Alphonse Mucha's Zodiac shows a golden-haired woman in profile, wearing a jeweled headdress and ringed by the twelve signs of the zodiac. Mucha first designed it in 1896 as a calendar for the Paris magazine La Plume, and it proved so popular that it was reprinted as a decorative print. For someone who loves Art Nouveau or reads the stars.
