"Lefèvre-Utile" is a lithographed advertisement created by the renowned Czech Art Nouveau painter and decorative artist Alphonse Maria Mucha. Designed in 1896, this work was commissioned by the French biscuit company Lefèvre-Utile, commonly known as LU. The piece is one of the many advertisements Mucha created during his prolific career, which contributed significantly to the visual language of the Art Nouveau movement.

The advertisement features Mucha's signature style, which includes a harmonious composition, a beautiful woman with flowing hair, and an ornate, decorative background. The central figure in the "Lefèvre-Utile" advertisement is often referred to as a Mucha woman, an idealized female who embodies the aesthetic of the era and is frequently seen throughout Mucha's oeuvre. She is depicted holding a biscuit, with the LU monogram prominently displayed, showcasing the product in an elegant and appealing manner.

Mucha's work for Lefèvre-Utile not only helped to elevate the brand's image but also played a significant role in shaping the advertising industry by demonstrating the power of art in commercial contexts. His innovative approach to advertisement design, which integrated fine art with marketing, was groundbreaking at the time and has since been celebrated for its influence on graphic design and visual advertising.

"Lefèvre-Utile" is emblematic of Mucha's ability to blend commercial demands with his artistic vision, creating works that were both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The advertisement is preserved in various art collections and institutions, and it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic qualities and historical significance within the Art Nouveau movement and the development of advertising art.
