Revivals : L'historicisme Dans Les Arts Décoratifs Français Au Xixe Siècle

Revivals are phenomena of artistic-style revival that marked the 19th century, during which artists and craftsmen revisited and reinvested the styles of the past.

This book offers an analyse of Neostyle development in the fields of interior decoration, furniture, ceramics, goldsmithing and fashion in the 19th century. It studies the movements of reappropriation and migration of Antiquity, Renaissance and 18th century shapes, patterns and typologies that were found in all decorative arts.
