Red Asters

 Yesterday I noticed something strange. On Nightcafe Studio I was asking for red asters in the style of Alphonse Mucha. Here is the exact prompt:

beautiful red aster in the style of Alphonse Mucha, intricate, decorative, highdefinition

The outcome however was this:

As you can see, the AI Generator decided to create the portrait of a woman with red asters. Obviously, it is the name of "Alphonse Mucha" which causes this. 

However if you go on Google and search for Mucha's artworks you will see that almost all his artworks have to do with women (portraits, full body paintings). 

Now I was curious to see what the following prompt would create:

beautiful red asters in the style of art nouveau, intricate, decorative, highdefinition

Alphonse Mucha was a representative of the Art Nouveau period. 

As you can see, I was successful in removing the woman from the image by just mentioning "art nouveau". 

So we can learn two things:

1. If you use the name of an artist in your prompt, go to google and look up his works in order to have an impression of what consequences the mentioning of this artist could have on your image.

2. Sometimes ii is better to go for the style in general (Art nouveau, impressionism and such) and not mention any artist at all.
