Virgo constellation
1880 - 1920
Reaching up to catch a shooting star, this stylized nude figure represents the zodiac sign Virgo in a striking black-and-white print. The bold, graphic lines and geometric patterns in the surrounding foliage are classic hallmarks of the Art Deco movement, which loved mixing natural forms with sleek, modern design. Created in the early 20th century, pieces like this were often part of astrological calendars, capturing the era's fascination with mysticism and the cosmos.
