Art Nouveau tile, from the Villeroy & Boch factory in Dresden. This design is characteristically Art Nouveau (or Jugendstil), where nature serves as the source of inspiration, manifesting in organic, stylized forms. The motif is defined by a dynamic, diagonal composition, with clusters of gracefully shaped flowers flanking the elongated purple zone. The fluid, ochre-colored contour lines accentuate the relief and ensure a clear separation of the color fields, while simultaneously evoking the style's distinctive 'whiplash lines.' The square border is decoratively and stylishly interrupted in the corners, underscoring the refinement of this historical ornamental tile work. Excellent condition tile!!
