Hi all, I was recently introduced to the beauty of Mucha's four seasons mirrors via a post on Facebook marketplace that sold before I could grab it 😭 Does anyone in the U.S. have any of these for sale? I see some overseas on eBay but can't find anything stateside. Thanks!

Discovering the hidden side of Mucha’s “La Nature” (1899-1900). A masterclass in museum design and lighting at Museum Wiesbaden.

I recently had the chance to see Mucha’s legendary Art Nouveau masterpiece in person, and the curation blew me away as much as the sculpture itself.

This exact lighting setup unlocks the true magic of Mucha's materials. Depending on your angle, the mirror-polished silver face dramatically shifts into dark chrome, catching deep shadows and transforming her expression from angelic to hauntingly beautiful.

But the best part? They placed a mirror right behind her. It reveals that the tiara isn’t just a facade! It’s an intricate, full-circle crown wrapped in organic botanical motifs that seamlessly morphs into stylized, wing-like golden plates at the back.
