The artwork titled “All the Newspapers in the World,” created by Edmund Dulac, belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and represents the genre of illustration.
In the artwork, a woman is depicted seated at the center, dressed in an elaborate period gown characterized by its rich blue fabric and white accents. Her serene and composed demeanor contrasts starkly with the disarray around her — sheets of paper scattered across the floor, apparently symbolizing newspapers. The setting is a lavish interior room adorned with opulent drapery in deep hues of red and purple, accentuating the luxurious atmosphere. The scene captures a sense of calmness amid chaos, meticulously rendered in Dulac’s distinct illustrative style inherent to the Art Nouveau movement.
