france - xixth century - napoleon iii period
the louis xv style succeeds the regency style. It is also called the rocaille or rococo style.
the inventors of the louis xv style are true creators in the modern sense of the term, revolutionizing the way of looking at furniture and interior decoration. In this respect it can be compared to the gothic style and art nouveau in the sense that they represent creation and technical advances in the use of materials.
the pompadour, transition and louis xvi styles will succeed the louis xv style, which will remain an inspiration found in each of these 3 styles.
many louis xv style rooms can still be found today in the palace of versailles.
the second empire style, also known as napoleon iii style, is an architectural, furnishing and clothing style, born in france during the second empire, under the impetus of emperor napoleon iii and empress eugenie. He enjoyed great success with the french bourgeoisie between the 1860s and the 1880s. Emperor napoleon iii wishing to surround himself with a sumptuous court, he tried to reconnect with the pomp of the first empire and restore rise to french industry through its orders. While attaching himself to the conservation of old know-how, napoleon iii encouraged the development of new techniques. But the evolution of the decorative arts is due more to the action of empress eugénie than to that of the emperor. The empress is very attracted to the styles of the past, in particular the louis xvi style. She gives an important place in her apartments to the furniture of marie-antoinette or to furniture inspired by her. less
