Fantasy and allegory

At the end of the 19th century, a new form of art was born that went beyond visible reality and celebrated dreams, symbols, mystery and poetry.
It is a mystery entrusted to fantastical female figures, a mirror of human society embodied in allegorical animals, and a fantasy of the city of the future.
This page features a carefully selected collection of antique prints and illustrations from the late 19th century by Georges de Feurs, Robida, Alastair and others, with themes of symbolism and fantasy.
Please enjoy this beautiful and mysterious world that blooms between reality and dreams.
