Art Appreciation – Alphonse Mucha

AF1Alphonse Mucha (1860 – 1939) was a true ‘Art Nouveau’ master. Born in Czechoslovakia he is much underrated, being overshadowed by more renowned artists of the era. His work for Sarah Bernhardt is so recognizable you will be surprised.

We have two guided tours booked.1.30  & 2.30 on Wed. Oct 11th.      Tour is £5 plus £5 entry.   Arts council, etc. half price £2.50 entry

Nb. We have ONLY just been informed of the entry fee of £5.00, I was assured it was £5.00 total. Those who have already paid £5.00 tour fee will need to pay £5.00 on entry to the Walker Art  Gallery as will I and the rest of the group.

Sorry about this, its a faux pas on the admin side of Merseyside Galleries.
