Eugène Grasset was a French designer and illustrator who shaped the Art Nouveau aesthetic through ornamental typography, botanical illustration, and decorative composition. Working across posters, book design, and applied arts from the 1880s onward, he developed a signature vocabulary of whiplash curves, interlocking plant forms, and jewel-toned palettes that became foundational to the movement's visual language. His designs for commercial printing and luxury editions established ornamental modernism as a viable alternative to academic historicism.
