Discover the hidden side of Art Nouveau—beyond the familiar icons.
Behind its most celebrated masterpieces lies a more intimate world of secret places and forgotten wonders. Secret Art Nouveau unveils 70 exceptional yet little-known sites across Europe - from ornate villas and grand casinos to bathhouses, winter gardens, fountains, and secluded architectural treasures.
The result of over a decade of dedicated research and privileged access, this exquisite volume brings together the striking photography of Phil Lewis and the expert insights of Heike Maria Johenning. Their work reveals the intricate motifs, symbolism, and cultural connections that define Art Nouveau across 20 European countries, from France to Hungary, via Italy, Spain and Romania.
Far removed from the well-trodden landmarks, these rare locations - often hidden behind closed doors or nestled in unexpected cities - offer a fresh, refined perspective on one of Europe’s most captivating artistic movements. Richly illustrated and beautifully produced, this is a book to return to again and again.
