Introduction

The Museum of Art Nouveau sits in the heart of Aveiro, Portugal, inside a former bank building, devoted to the Art Nouveau movement that swept Europe from the late 19th to early 20th century. Its collections of posters, furniture, glass and ceramics, together with the facade's azulejo tiles and ornate ironwork, reveal the era's love of natural curves and decorative exuberance. As a cultural landmark of the 'Venice of Portugal', the museum is a bright window onto Aveiro's civic aesthetics and its lagoon-side way of life.
