Grasset did much to introduce the concept and practice of Art Nouveau
in France. In fact, Grasset "brought Art Nouveau to the aid of the
poster: it was to become a worldwide vehicle of the art of advertising.
In France, Grasset was the pioneer of an attempt, like that of William
Morris in England, to reconcile art and industry . . . Interested
as he was in all the applied arts, he came naturally to the poster"
(Weill, p.32)
