He worked in conventional materials and best known for his Neoclassical bronze pieces, he focused on historic themes and mythology while incorporating external materials and devices such as marble, plaster, terracotta and lighting fixtures. The Napoleon III Style The Second French Empire, also known as the era of Napoleon III (1852-1870), was a period of significant change in the world of design. Under the patronage of Napoleon III and his wife Empress Eugenie (1826-1920), the decorative arts flourished. Paris was transformed into a vibrant artistic center, leading Europe in the development of new styles and techniques. The imperial couple were avid patrons of the arts, and their personal tastes had a profound influence on the styles of this era. The design style of the period has long been characterized by a mixture of opulence, grandeur, and historicity, often portrayed as an era of decorative revival. Elements of Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, and in particular Neo-Classical design history can be seen as having a profound influence on the art and architecture of the time. Yet, the period is also marked by significant technological and industrial advancements, which sparked innovations in design that adapted typical furniture to the rapidly modernizing world. Let’s dive into the gilded world of 19th century antiques, to judge whether the decorative arts of this period were elegant historical revivals, or ingenious design innovations.
