General info on bronze:

Bronze is an alloy of different kinds of metal with at least 60% of copper.

Most commonly used in the alloy are copper and pewter.

Sometimes one uses zinc as a 3rd. metal but always in small percentages due to its softness and low rigidity.

Bronze is much harder and more meltable than 100% copper and therefor frequently used for artworks, statues and ornaments.

General info on Jugendstil :

Art Nouveau began in London and is also known as "Jugendstil" in german speaking countries, Modernismo in Spain and as Stile Liberty in Italy.

The term Art Nouveau refers to a 'renewal' movement which began in Western Europe around 1880.

With this style, artists rebelled against the 'oldish' way of classic art.

It is a style in architecture, sculpture, painting and mostly ornamental, decorative, asymmetrical, exotic with symbols of sexuality, death and resurrection.
