Additional information

Niue has functioned as a prolific licensing vehicle for the New Zealand mint and various private distributors since the 1990s, issuing commemorative silver dollars under arrangements that have little to do with the island's 1,600-person population and everything to do with the collector market. This piece is the third in a five-part series celebrating Alphonse Mucha, the Czech Art Nouveau painter whose work became iconic largely through his Paris poster commissions for Sarah Bernhardt in the 1890s — a commercial relationship that Mucha himself reportedly resented for overshadowing his more ambitious Slavic Epic project.
