Footnote
Note: Alfred Daguet's atelier was situated above Siegfried Bing's famous showroom, Maison de l'Art Nouveau, that displayed his works as well as those by Louis Comfort Tiffany, and numerous other Art Nouveau artists such as Clément Massier, Eugène Gaillard and Georges de Feure. Bing was a major proponent of the Art Nouveau movement and his pavilion at the Exposition Universelle of 1900 in Paris signified to the world the importance of this new style.
