Answer

The text introduces Art Nouveau, a popular artistic style in Europe from 1890 to 1910. It emerged as a reaction against industrialization, drawing inspiration from nature with organic lines and vibrant colors. Art Nouveau encompassed various mediums, including paintings, sculptures, architecture, and everyday objects like furniture and jewelry. Notable figures include Antoni Gaudi and Hector Guimard, known for their architectural contributions, and Louis Comfort Tiffany renowned for glassworks. In Britain, Liberty of London played a significant role, commissioning Art Nouveau patterns for fabrics, while Charles Rennie Mackintosh stood out as a prominent Scottish designer and architect. Art Nouveau's influence persisted into the 20th century, with revivals reflecting its enduring popularity.
