Mucha (Taschen)
(1993 - Taschen)

Taschen put out this smaller book (9-by-7 inches) with the title MUCHA or, in some editions, ALFONS MUCHA. 96 pages, with just less than 50 primarily displaying the art, the rest being biography, commentary and photos. The text was composed by Renate Ulmer. Almost every image is captioned with title and origination year. The reproductions are nice and crisp, but again all are on the smaller side. This book could be considered a good compact introduction to the artist. The List recommends ALPHONSE MUCHA MASTERWORKS, DRAWINGS OF MUCHA and Sarah Mucha's book before this one, but this one has 22 'well-presented' art pieces not seen that way in those volumes, if at all.
