"North Star" is a 1902 artwork by Alphonse Mucha, known for its Art Nouveau style. The piece features a female figure in a flowing gown, gracefully reaching toward a bright, star-like object. The use of elongated lines, sinuous curves, and stylized floral motifs are quintessential Art Nouveau, emphasizing a sense of flowing movement and organic forms. The background is a dark brown with hints of gold and white, creating a sense of depth and mystery. Mucha's signature style, characterized by elegance, femininity, and a touch of mysticism, is evident in this captivating work.
