1. I took her for Art History 1A. FUN and smart professor
2. I adore Betty Ann Brown. She's just seems like a badass, I wish I could be in her class.
3. Thank you good voice. Nowadays we have to say turn of which hundredyears.
4. 1/3 For all those interested in Art Nouveau I strongly recommend the book "Art Nouveau" by Stephen Escritt published by Phaidon Press. It is a wonderful introduction. One of the points Mr. Escritt elaborates is that although Art Nouveau was a new art for a new century, it's indebted to the developments of previous and contemporary artistic movements.
