It's just a common copy of a lithograph that was an advertisement for a brand (Robette, I assume) of absinthe. I doubt that the artist is well known or significant and this type of thing isn't neccessarily even thought to be fine art (especially not at the time it was made) by many people. I think that absinthe is the clue. Maybe it is the reason why Bree seemed a little dopey in the last video.. |
I'm an art history major so I just have to correct you out of habit, lol! The artist is Alphonse Mucha, and he's very famous. Maybe what he did wasn't 'fine art' but it was revolutionary graphic art.
Other than that, I don't think there's any significance to Mucha. I think they just wanted something that said Absinthe on it, and they found that advertisement and used it. I have about 5 of his posters, they aren't hard to get.
Carry on! |
Hello. I'm student of art history and i must say that artist IS NOT Mucha. It's another poster artist who was active in his time - Privat Livemont. Just Google his name. |

I have to agree with Nic. Sometimes the Creatortrons forget how sleuthy, albeit geeky, we can be.  |

I think the group in which Bree is, is really A.A. !
But with all these chartreuse - absinthe references, I don't think it is Argenteum Astrum. It's more like Alcoholics Anonymous. |

I got it!!!!!!!!!!!
Book of Revelation
Rev 8-10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
Rev 8:11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
Absinthe is the french name for wormwood!!!!!!!
But I don't know what that means.....  |
