Emil Hoye silversmith and designer<\/h4>\n

Emil Hoye (actually “H\u00f8ye”), born in Bergen in 1875 and died there in 1958, was one of the most famous designers of Norwegian Art Nouveau. Emil Hoye achieved international recognition as a designer and goldsmith in particular, and there is also evidence of his poster designs, which were influenced by the Czech artist Alphonse Mucha and French Art Nouveau. Emil Hoye was employed for a time as a designer at the silversmithy Magnus Aase and was also the managing director there between 1910 and 1916 until he went into business for himself. Before and after that, he also worked as a designer for other silversmiths.<\/p>\n
