The Four Stars

The Moon, from The Four Stars, 1902 by Alphonse Mucha

These four paintings — The Moon, The Morning Star, The Evening Star and The Pole Star — comprise The Four Stars by Alphonse Mucha, painted in 1902. All feature dramatic light and shade, each maiden alluding to the heavenly body she represents. My favorite is The Moon, but they are best grouped together, for full effect. (I’m a big Mucha fan; I have these four prints up on my wall.)

    You can’t get too mucha Mucha! And in case you’re unfamiliar with Dover’s reprintings… though you’ll want to avoid the re-renderings by Ed Sibbett, Jr.
