The Kiss
Artist: Peter Behrens
Circa: 1898
Peter Behrens, a pioneer of German Jugendstil and later a key figure in modern design, created The Kiss as a striking Art Nouveau composition. Two faces meet in profile, enveloped in flowing, decorative lines of hair and pattern, symbolizing unity and sensuality. The image reflects the fin-de-siècle fascination with stylization, symbolism, and the blending of graphic art with expressive emotion.
