Jazz Age Style

Top Hats by Erté

                    Art historians and scholars define Erté’s unique style as transitional Art Deco, because it bridges the visual gap between fin-de-siècle schools of Symbolism, with its ethereal quality, Art Nouveau, with its high ornament, and the mid-1920s movement of Art Deco, with its inspirational sources and concise execution.
