A legend in his own lifetime, Alfons Mucha precipitated his rise to world fame in 1894 with his poster of actress Sarah Bernhardt in 'Gismonda' which introduced the art nouveau style.

Mucha was born in 1860 in Moravia, now part of the Czech Republic. His family opened this museum in 1998. It contains the artist's famously ornate posters, biscuit and champagne labels, bicycle ads, etc. Each item shows off his use and mastery of intricate detail and pastel colours. There are also other images: painted depictions of age, poverty and war, the artist's sketchbooks showing how he worked out his decorative patterns, and photographs both by and of Mucha.

Prague is full of Mucha souvenirs, and the gift shop here is a good place to find some of the more tasteful ones.

Admission: Adults - 120 Kc; Concessions - 60 Kc.
