So, I definitely just discovered this guy!! (thanks Google!) Anddddd apparently, Alphonse Mucha was brilliant at what he did! This amazing Czech artist was true to his passion and country. A true patriotic symbol who refused to "sell out." A man who stood for art and his country and proved there is no liberal or conservative artists, only artists. A man who believed patriotism for one's country didn't confine him, but freed him to travel the world!
Happy 150th birthday! You were amazing and I can't believe I NEVER knew about you! I want to go back in time and slap my art history teacher.
i thought you were explaining yourself at first. Artist, Patriot, Explorer.
