Art Nouveau period was obsessed by Salome. The character of Salome has appeared in books, theaters, on posters, and her provocative and dangerous feminine power has inspired many artists to portray her. Alfons Mucha's Salome holds a lyre with bells in her hand, and her overall exotic appearance with a hypnotic gaze seems very purposeful.
