Most Helpful Customer Reviews 30 of 30 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars 127 Authentic Art Deco Designs, March 30, 2000 By  Carol Goldsmith (Chicago IL USA) - See all my reviews This book represents early Art Deco Designs, perhaps even late Art Nouveau Designs. The strikingly remarkable feature is the color combinations, which show the early flavor of the period. These designs were taken from two portfolios of 1920's artists. There is a full range of figures from antalope and mountian lion to flowers and people. Some of which are highly intricate and ornate, while others verge on the primative. As a source book for a decorative artist (me), it gives subject and theme for any period compositions which can be mounted. The art is highly styled and ornate, giving a fresh look to the Art Deco Period. 11 of 12 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful And Inspiring, July 11, 2002 By  J.
