Made as a calendar panel for his printer, and probably Mucha’s most purely lovely design. A young woman in a flowered headdress looks down at an open portfolio in her lap, caught mid-daydream, while behind her a great decorated disc rises like a halo and a tangle of red blossom spills across the top. The palette is unusually soft — rose, cream, sage, gold — and the drawing of the hands and the fall of the sleeve are worth the wall on their own. Reproduced by the tens of thousands and, unlike most advertising, kept and framed. Ornament in the service of tenderness.

Before a size goes on sale, the file is measured against it: pixels per inch at that size, how much of the picture a crop would lose, tone and sharpness. A size that fails is not offered, so there is nothing to choose wrong.
